As previously posted (see Daily GPI, Aug. 13), Southern Natural Gas has been performing inspections on the 26-inch diameter line downstream of Gate 6 (where a rupture occurred recently in a 20-inch diameter line) and installing an interim solution at Gate 6 to allow Main Pass area volumes to flow into the 26-inch line. The interim solution at Gate 6 and the anomaly inspection on the 26-inch line have been completed, Southern said, and effective with the Intraday 2 nominations cycle Tuesday and until further notice it is allowing about 650,000 Dth/d to flow into the 26-inch line. See the bulletin board for a list of affected points.

Kern River reported completing replacement of a damaged compressor at Goodsprings Compressor Station (see Daily GPI, July 25) and returning the unit to service. It increased Veyo Compressor Station capacity to 2,005,000 Dth/d Tuesday and returned Goodsprings throughput to the capacity that was in effect prior to the outage.

Questar has scheduled Aug. 22-23 maintenance on the units at Greasewood Compressor Station, which will reduce capacity at its interconnect with TransColorado to 35,000 Dth/d. “Based on current data, this represents a 10% reduction in primary to primary tier 1 nominations,” Questar said.
