SOC – System Wide Draft – Update #1
EPNG will remain under an SOC for a Draft condition (Reference Critical Notice No. 615406). Linepack starts Gas Day July 20 at 7,425 MMcf which is a decrease of 25Mmcf. EPNG continues to see drafting on the system and remains concerned about the above average temperatures forecast in the Desert Southwest this week. EPNG will continue to increase linepack to maintain adequate delivery pressures during the anticipated higher loads. Continued drafting of the system will undermine our efforts to increase linepack.
Washington Ranch is on maximum operational withdrawal.
Delivery point operators are encouraged to review their transport to ensure that their takes are in balance with their supplies and to ensure their scheduled supplies are performing as expected.
Payback from the system, such as Payback (Imbalance Payback from TSP), will be denied due to operational concerns related to maintaining adequate linepack.
