CenterPoint said it has resolved a Line O failure and shippers are no longer under operational alert No. 697.

Transco noted that due to damage from Hurricane Ike, the Cameron Meadows processing facility has been unable to gather, separate and dehydrate gas on the pipeline’s West Cameron system in southwest Louisiana. The West Cameron system has now been rerouted into the inlet of NHI at Station 44 for separation and dehydration, Transco said, and effective with Monday’s (Dec. 1) gas day five locations (see the bulletin board for list) “will be allowed to flow if they are capable of flowing.” Transco also reported completing repairs of a leaking valve at the VK [Viosca Knoll] EMP [East Main Pass] 261A meter offshore southeast Louisiana (see Daily GPI, Nov. 24) and resumed taking nominations there Monday.

Citing a scheduling conflict with vendor technicians and input from customers moving gas on its ML 104 segment, Questar said it has determined that it would be advantageous to reschedule Oak Spring Compressor Station maintenance from Thursday and Friday of this week to Dec. 16-17. At that time the ML 104 scheduling point will be reduced to 300,000 Dth/d, which based on current data represents a 35% reduction in primary to primary nominations, Questar said.

Rockies Express Pipeline (REX) reminded shippers that Questar Overthrust Pipeline will performing required maintenance at its Rock Springs Compressor Station for eight hours Tuesday. “This has a direct impact to REX’s lease on Overthrust,” REX said. “REX shippers nominating supplies on the lease portion (Segment 650) through Wamsutter will be scheduled to zero during the maintenance. Additional scheduled quantities are anticipated to become available for the Intraday 1 cycle.”
