Due to the extent of work required at Muddy Gap Compressor Station (see Daily GPI, Dec. 27, 2002), throughput on the Wind River Lateral is expected to stay restricted to 225 MMcf/d through Monday (Jan. 6), returning to normal for Tuesday’s Cycle 1 nominations, CIG said. It had previously expected to complete the repairs Friday. The lateral extends from CIG’s Lost Cabin Compressor Station to the Rawlins Compressor Station.

Northern Border issued OFO Watches Thursday for the Prophetstown delivery point and the Hebron receipt point. Cumulative operational imbalances at these locations exceed the tolerance level of 10% of the Historical Flow Quantity for such points, the pipeline said.
