WARNING OF STRAINED OPERATING CONDITION (SOC) – DRAFT
The EPNG system linepack started Gas Day October 24, 2024 at 7,475 MMcf which is a decrease of 265 MMcf compared to the start of Gas Day October 23, 2024. The decrease is the result of actual takes in excess of scheduled deliveries.
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.
Washington Ranch withdrawal is limited due to L1100 anomaly repairs and subsequent isolation. (Reference Critical Notice No: 623082)
Underperformance caps will be placed on underperforming supplies.
Imbalance payback off the system, such as Payback (Imbalance Payback from TSP), will be denied due to operational concerns related to maintaining adequate linepack.
