FORCE MAJEURE - COMPRESSOR STATION 343

Due to the recent storm event and after further investigation by the provider of commercial power, Natural will experience loss of power at Compressor Station 343 (CS 343) located in Liberty County, Texas (Segment 25 of Natural's Texok Zone).  This is a Force Majeure event that will require Natural to reduce the maximum operating capacity eastbound into Segment 25 from Segment 26 and Segment 22, thus limiting Natural's throughput capacity eastbound through CS 302 during this restriction.

The scheduling constraint will be at CS 302; therefore, any gas received west of CS 302 for delivery east of CS 302 will be impacted for the duration of the restriction.  The Pooling Point - Texok Zone (LOC 10560) is located west of the constraint.  Firm transportation associated with storage injections or withdrawals may be impacted.

As such, effective for gas day Friday, January 27, 2023, Intraday 1 Cycle, and anticipated to continue for nine (9) hours for emergent repairs, Natural will schedule Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports to no less than 70% of contract MDQ through CS 302.  Actual nomination levels and changes in pipeline conditions could result in changes to the percentages scheduled (lower or higher).  AOR/ITS and Secondary out-of-path Firm transports will not be available for the duration of this restriction.

Continue to monitor Natural's interactive website for any updates during this restriction.  Natural will post, immediately, once the repair work has been completed.  Please contact your Account Director or Scheduling Representative if you have any questions.
