After allowing an OFO Type 6 that had been implemented on the previous Friday to expire last Tuesday, Southern Natural Gas said Friday that “based on historically high storage inventory levels and projected high injection requirements for the upcoming weekend,” it would implement another OFO Type 6 for long imbalances Saturday (Sept. 12) until further notice. Tiered penalties would apply to positive daily imbalances exceeding 2% or 200 Dth, whichever was greater.

Rockies Express (REX) reminded shippers that maintenance projects are scheduled during the Sept. 14-18 workweek at the Arlington and Steele City compressor stations (see the bulletin board for details). REX also noted that maintenance by Questar Overthrust Pipeline, set for Tuesday through Thursday at its Rock Springs and Roberson compressor stations, will affect its capacity lease on Overthrust. REX shippers nominating receipts on the leased capacity through Wamsutter will be scheduled to zero during the maintenance, it said.

Gulf South plans four days of maintenance starting Sept. 22 on Unit #2 at its Hall Summit Compressor Station, which will reduce station capacity by as much as 125,000 Dth/d.
