WARNING OF STRAINED OPERATING CONDITION (SOC) – DRAFT
EPNG's system linepack starts Gas Day February 23, 2023 at 7,687 MMCF which is a decrease of 436 MMCF compared to the start of Gas Day February 22, 2023. The decrease in linepack is primarily the result of actual takes in excess of scheduled deliveries.
Washington Ranch is being brought onto 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. If the situation fails to improve EPNG will declare an SOC for a DRAFT condition.
Imbalance payback off the system, such as Make-Up Delivery (MD) transactions, will denied due to operational concerns related to maintaining adequate linepack.
