FORCE MAJEURE – SEGMENT 25 - COMPRESSOR STATION 302
During our LA #1 pipeline recoat project near Compressor Station 302 (CS 302) located in Liberty County, Texas (Segment 25 of Natural's Texok Zone) anomalies were found that will require immediate repairs. Therefore, Natural is required 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. This is a Force Majeure event.
The scheduling constraint will be at CS 302; therefore, any gas received west of CS 302 for delivery east of CS 302, from Segment 26 and Segment 22, 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 Monday, September 23, 2024 Intraday 1 cycle Natural will not schedule any nominated increases. Beginning Tuesday, September 24, 2024, Timely Cycle, and continuing until further notice, Natural will schedule Primary Firm and Secondary in-path Firm transports to no less than 65% of contract MDQ through CS 302. The stated scheduling percentage is based upon the current level of firm capacity contracted for during this restriction and is subject to change based upon operational conditions and Shipper utilization. AOR/ITS and Secondary out-of-path Firm transports will not be available for the duration of this restriction.
