Pacific Gas and Electric did not extend a systemwide low-inventory OFO beyond Thursday.

As an Overage Alert Day reached its third day Thursday, Florida Gas Transmission restored the original tolerance of 25% for negative daily imbalances after having tightened it to 15% Wednesday.

Trunkline said an outage of its Kountze 100-1 Line in southeast Texas between Gate Valves 42-1 and 43-1 so the Neches River crossing can be rebored has been scheduled to begin Sept. 16 and last 15 days. During this time capacity through Longville will be limited to 850 MMcf/d, the pipeline said.

CIG said it has identified additional firm capacity of 12,000 Dth/d available for the winter season (Nov. 1 through March 31) at a new receipt point at the suction side of the Picketwire Blending Facility. “There is not a physical receipt at this location, but gas could be acquired from existing shippers delivering to this point or from other physical receipts on a secondary basis and transported through this point,” CIG said. An open season for the space will close at 2 p.m. MDT Oct. 7. See the bulletin board for details.
