El Paso Natural Gas Company, L.L.C. (EPNG) is extending the Line 2000 anomaly repairs downstream of its Casa Grande C Compressor Station (Reference Critical Notice No(s). 620794 and 620797) due to the depth of the excavation and associated ground water issues. The anomaly repairs will extend into March.
Accordingly, for March Maintenance, the operational capacity through the GILA constraint will be reduced by an additional 350,000 dekatherms per day (Dth/d).
For March Maintenance, the operational capacity through the CASA C constraint will be reduced by 336,600 dekatherms per day (Dth/d).
EPNG will post an updated maintenance notice to reflect the total impact through the GILA and CASA C constraints. This reduction in operational capacity will remain in effect until further notice.
EPNG will provide updates as more information becomes available.
