SEGMENT 15 – A/G #1 LINE – ILI TOOL RUNS
As posted on Natural's Outage Impact Report (X22-1117674) and as part of Natural's ongoing pipeline Integrity Management Program, Natural will be performing a series of ILI Tool Runs between Compressor Station 801 (CS 801) located in Carter County, Oklahoma and Compressor Station 802 (CS 802) located in Lamar County, Texas (Segment 15 and Segment 17 of Natural's Texok Zone). This work will require Natural to reduce its operating capacity eastbound through CS 801 for the duration of the ILI Tool Runs.
The scheduling constraint will be at CS 801 in Segment 15; therefore, any gas received west of CS 801 for delivery east of CS 801 will be impacted for the duration of this restriction. For scheduling purposes, the Midcontinent Pooling Point (LOC 25078) is located west of the constraint. Additionally, firm transportation associated with storage injections or withdrawals may be impacted.
As such, effective on the gas days indicated below, Natural will schedule Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports to no less than 37% of contract MDQ eastbound through CS 801, Segment 15. Additionally, in Segment 17 of Natural's Texok Zone, only Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports will be scheduled eastbound and westbound through CS 802 during this restriction. AOR/ITS and Secondary out-of-path Firm transports will not be available eastbound or westbound for the duration of the restriction in either Segment 15 (eastbound) or Segment 17 (eastbound or westbound).
TOOL RUN DATES:
Gas day Tuesday, May 2, 2023 through gas day Wednesday, May 3, 2023 (Cleaning)
Gas day Thursday, May 4, 2023 through gas day Friday, May 5, 2023 (Cleaning/Gauge Tools)
Gas day Tuesday, May 9, 2023 through gas day Wednesday, May 10, 2023 (MFL/Caliper Tools)
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. Once the data from the tool run have been analyzed, any remediation work impacting shippers will be posted.
