SEGMENT 8 – STATION MAINTENANCE (CS 167) – REMINDER
Please be reminded of the upcoming station maintenance work in Segment 8, as noted below. Once this maintenance work has been completed, Natural will return Segment 8 northbound at CS 167 to Primary Only as previously posted in a notice on October 27, 2022 entitled “SEGMENT 8 - CS 167 NORTHBOUND – PRIMARY ONLY”.
As posted on Natural's Outage Impact Report (X22-109994), Natural will be performing station maintenance at Compressor Station 167 (CS 167), located in Lea County, New Mexico (Segment 8 of Natural's Permian Zone). This maintenance work requires Natural to reduce its operating capacity, thus limiting Natural's throughput capacity northbound through CS 167.
The scheduling constraint will be at CS 167; therefore, any gas received south of CS 167 for delivery north of CS 167 will be impacted for the duration of this restriction. For scheduling purposes, the Permian Pool (LOC 25077) is located south of the constraint. Additionally, firm transportation nominated from receipt points south of CS 167 (including the Permian Pool) for injection at any storage point will be impacted.
As such, effective for gas day, Tuesday, November 22, 2022, Timely Cycle, and continuing through gas day Wednesday, November 23, 2022, Natural will schedule Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports to no less than 73% of contract MDQ through CS 167. AOR/ITS and Secondary out-of-path Firm transports will not be available.
The stated scheduling percentage is based upon the current level of firm capacity contracted for during this outage and is subject to change based upon operational conditions and Shipper utilization. Continue to monitor Natural's interactive website for any updates to the end date and/or scheduling percentage during this restriction.
Please contact your Account Director or Scheduling Representative if you have any questions.
