An Unauthorized Overpull Penalty situation declared Tuesday afternoon by El Paso remained in effect Wednesday until further notice.

Noting that its Transco-Rivervale meter was scheduled to return to service Wednesday following an outage associated with work on the Stagecoach Project (see Daily GPI, Nov. 20), Tennessee said that due to construction delays, resumption of service at the meter is not anticipated until Saturday. However, the Kiln and Eloi Bay meters did come back on-line from maintenance outages.

Due to inclement weather, offshore work to repair a leak on NGPL‘s High Island Lateral has been delayed. The pipeline said Wednesday its revised tentative date to have the lateral available for normal scheduling again is Sunday.

Due to a Yscloskey Plant outage earlier this month, cumulative PTR nominations for November have exceeded the amount actually processed at the plant, Tennessee said. Effective today and tomorrow customers must reduce PTR nominations for Yscloskey delivery to zero.

Transco said a spindown of its 22-mile North Padre Island Gathering System offshore Texas to affiliate Williams Gas Processing-Gulf Coast Company, L.P. will become effective Dec. 1. At that point the system’s facilities, including points located at and upstream of North Padre Island Block 956, will become non-jurisdictional. FERC approved the abandonment by sale on May 30. For gas flow to be effective on Dec. 1, a nomination on WGP-GC will be required to transport from all points upstream of NPI 956 to the delivery interconnect with Transco. Call Bill Malmquist at (713) 215-3504 and Debbie Waugh at (918) 574-9270 for information about scheduling gas with WGP-GC.

Citing delays in obtaining materials, NGPL has delayed by one week a project tying in new Compressor Station 166 to the Indian Basin Lateral (Segment 7). The work is now scheduled for Dec. 12-13. The lateral is located in the Permian Basin area on NGPL’s Amarillo System. Several points previously posted as being affected by the outage will not see any nominations impact after all. NGPL said it has arranged with area operators to place the imbalances incurred during the outage on the pipeline’s Operational Balancing Agreements.
