OPERATIONAL FLOW ORDER –REPORT

 

 

On January 11, 2018, due to the continuation of sustained  colder weather and system operating conditions, Horizon issued an Operational Flow Order (OFO) effective for Saturday, January 13, 2018 at 9:00 a.m. Central Clock Time.  This action was taken in accordance with Horizon's Operational Control Sequence set forth in Section 34.6 of the General Terms and Conditions of its FERC Gas Tariff (“GT&C”).

 

The OFO was issued to maintain and preserve the operational integrity of Horizon's system and was in response to the following operational factors: to maintain pressures for firm transportation deliveries and to maintain operations to provide efficient and reliable firm service.

 

The OFO did not result in any curtailment of primary firm service. During the OFO, Horizon implemented daily and hourly take limitations for Shippers (including Point Operators) at all delivery points.  As stated in its posting, the OFO limited Shippers/Point Operators from taking, on a daily basis, volumes in excess of confirmed transportation nominations plus no-notice rights pursuant to third party balancing agreements at such delivery points.  Additionally, Shippers and Point Operators were required to flow more ratably during the gas day at all delivery points and were limited to a posted hourly percentage (120%) of the Shipper's confirmed primary and (105%) of the Shipper's confirmed secondary nominations, plus no-notice rights.  

 

As the weather conditions moderated and the associated high gas demand declined, Horizon removed the OFO effective 9:00 a.m. on gas day Friday, January 19, 2018.
