Pacific Gas and Electric Company called a state two high inventory operational flow order with a 0% tolerance for Friday on its California Gas Transmission system. Penalties are $1/Dth. The company expects system inventories to extend well into the red zone above 4.5 Bcf through the weekend.

Transcontinental Gas Pipe Line (Transco) is conducting maintenance of its onshore slug catcher near Bayou Black through Friday. During this maintenance period, all receipts upstream of Transco’s Compressor Station 62 will be shut in; impacting 1 Bcf/d of flowing supplies. Shippers were advised that no gas will be allowed to flow from receipt points on the Southeast Louisiana Lateral and therefore they should plan to re-source any gas supplies originating on the Southeast Louisiana lateral during the outage.
