Columbia Gulf said it has limited delivery capacity at the Columbia Gas interconnects at Leach, KY. As of Saturday it expected to be able to deliver only 1,825,000 Dth/d at the location. “Since this scheduling location represents multiple physical delivery meters, the quantity scheduled each day may vary based on actual market demand…and other operating conditions,” Columbia Gulf said. The constraint is related to a pipe replacement project near the interconnects. Columbia Gulf expects it will take three weeks to complete the work.

Sonat noted that on Oct. 18, 2001, it had posted a notice estimating that one of the Muldon (MS) Storage Field units would be out of service until sometime in April 2002. As of Friday all three Muldon units were available and the force majeure that was issued last Oct. 12 was canceled effective immediately.
