Effective with the start of Thursday’s gas day, MRT is lifting the System Protection Warning that was implemented last Saturday.

Northwest will perform anomaly investigations and pipe replacements between the Rangely and Vernal compressor stations Thursday and Friday, during which available mainline capacity in that segment will be reduced to zero. “Since recent net scheduled volumes in the affected section of mainline have been very low, Northwest will attempt to mitigate this outage using storage and balancing flexibility,” the pipeline said. “If there is a significant change in nominations, Northwest will evaluate the operational options and declare a deficiency period if necessary to complete this work.”
