Texas Eastern restricted all deliveries Friday to the Transco Ragley interconnect in its West Louisiana pool, saying the pressure differential between the two pipelines did not “accommodate deliveries to Transco’s system.” The condition was expected to continue through Monday (Nov. 18).

ANR will conduct maintenance Wednesday and Thursday on the Alliance/ANR Meter Station in Illinois, reducing the point’s receipt capacity into ANR by 790 MMcf/d from the normal 1,180 MMcf/d. Based on current nominations, it is anticipated that this reduction could result in curtailment of IT and Firm Secondary nominations.

NOVA said Friday that if system linepack continued at high levels, an imbalance tolerance change might be necessary Saturday.

Northern Natural Gas has scheduled cooler repairs on Unit #5 at the Spraberry 12 Station Monday through Friday of this week. It said about 80,000 MMBtu/d would be affected between the Valero Spraberry and Lonestar Spraberry points.

While Tennessee performs unexpected repairs to units at Station 241 (Syracuse, NY), the station is expected to remain out of service for three to four weeks. Until the station becomes available again, throughput capability on the 200 Line downstream of Station 241 is reduced by approximately 7% and East of Checks (between Stations 245 in West Winfield, NY and 321 in West Clifford, PA) is reduced by approximately 4%. However, because the two segments are currently scheduled at approximately 57% and 62% of available capacity respectively, Tennessee does not anticipate the station outage to impact any services unless a severe weather change greatly increases demand.
