CIG said various operating conditions related to gas loading factors in its Segment 118, located in the Oklahoma Panhandle, have caused variations in pressure that affect the pressure needed to deliver gas to the east end delivery points of Segment 118. “To assist in controlling these varying pressure levels, CIG will establish a new constraint point: Beaver East (BEC) between Beaver…and Floris (FRS),” the pipeline said. The operationally available capacity at this point will be 210 MMcf/d beginning Thursday. The new BEC constraint point will limit deliveries to FRS, Forgan, Mocane and Mid-America, CIG said, but it will not affect firm primary nominations.

Sea Robin Pipeline reported completion of the repair work to reroute gas around its toppled platform in East Cameron 265, but said that as previously posted, it has discovered additional damage to its West Leg in East Cameron 334. The pipeline said it will complete additional assessments on its West Leg over the next two to three weeks to determine if any other damage exists between East Cameron 335 and East Cameron 265. “These assessments will include diver investigations at potential damage locations, including subsea tie-ins and platform risers as well as additional side scan sonar surveys,” Sea Robin said. See the bulletin board for further information on Sea Robin’s efforts to recover from hurricane-related damage, including a list of locations that will not be cleared for flow until further repairs and other work have been completed.
