Southern California Gas declared a high-linepack OFO for Saturday, saying it would assess Buy-Back charges in accordance with its rules and tariffs to customers who delivered into the SoCalGas system more than 110% of their actual gas usage on the OFO day.

Pacific Gas & Electric issued a systemwide Stage 2 high-inventory OFO for Saturday, setting penalties of $1/Dth for exceeding a 9% tolerance on positive daily imbalances.

As it had expected, Columbia Gas was able to lift a force majeure on its Line P Friday after repairing a leak (see Daily GPI, Nov. 2). Production was allowed to resume at affected points.

NGPL said a gas quality problem was reported at the Superior Taloga Dewey receipt point in Dewey County, OK. Until further notice the point is unavailable for service.

Southern LNG will conduct maintenance Monday at its Elba Island terminal, during which physical sendout will be cut to zero. However, the company expects to confirm nominations of up to 600,000 Dth out of Elba Island that day, according to affiliate Southern Natural Gas (SNG). Shippers on the pipeline’s Savannah and Cypress lines will see reduced capacity and pressures during the maintenance, SNG said. It also noted that Florida Gas Transmission (FGT) will be performing about seven days of maintenance on its Jacksonville Lateral near the FGT/SNG Jacksonville Interconnect starting Monday. During this project SNG shippers at the interconnect may experience reductions in scheduled volumes, the pipeline said.
