Southern Natural Gas said its OFO Type 6 for short imbalances that was issued Thursday would be canceled at the start of Saturday’s gas day. However, the pipeline said it was “too close to call” on whether an OFO for short imbalances would be reinstated for Monday and/or Tuesday.

Based on forecasts for its ML-7 market area, ANR said it was canceling all cold weather-related restrictions Saturday.

Citing moderating weather, TGT said it would lift service restrictions north of Jeffersontown Compressor Station Saturday.

Northwest reported experiencing a mechanical failure at Willard Compressor Station but expected it to be returned to service Friday (Jan. 23). Meanwhile available capacity at the station has been reduced to 500,000 Dth/d, which was much less than primary firm nominations late last week through Willard of 618,000 Dth, with 100,000 Dth of displacement for a net of 518,000 Dth, Northwest said. “If primary firm nominations exceed the design capacity and/or available capacity, Northwest will (1) declare a customer-specific, realignment and/or must-flow OFO to reduce scheduled volumes to the design capacity of 533,000 Dth and (2) declare a deficiency period to reduce scheduled volumes to the available capacity,” the pipeline said.
