Tennessee declared a force majeure event Thursday in connection with a leak on its 527A-100 Line offshore Louisiana. See the bulletin board for a list of 12 meters that were required to shut in until leak repairs are completed.

Southern California Gas began repairs of an anomaly in Line 2001 Wednesday between the Colorado River and Blythe Compressor Station. The work is causing the loss of 210 MMcf/d of Southern California border receipt capacity at Ehrenberg until further notice.

Affiliated pipelines Algonquin and Texas Eastern said that due to forecasted low demands on their systems, neither will accept due-shipper imbalance creation or due-pipe payback effective with Friday’s gas day. Both anticipate that the restriction will be lifted early next week. Texas Eastern granted an exception to the restriction for all meters between Bedford and Lambertville that are impacted by a previously posted outage.

Saying the move reflects “current system conditions,” NOVA will reduce Alberta/British Columbia border receipt capacity to 2,170 MMcf/d Friday.

Effective with the IntraDay 2 nominations cycle for Thursday’s gas day, there will be no capacity for either interruptible or secondary transportation at the DTI-Loudoun receipt point until further notice, Dominion said. The point is limited to Primary services only.

Due to gas quality issues, effective Friday until further notice Columbia Gulf will accept nominations only up to 200,000 Dth/d at its interconnect with Sea Robin Pipeline. The Hess-operated Sea Robin Gas Processing Plant had been shut in Wednesday afternoon and the outage duration ran longer than the projected eight hours.
