Extremely High System Inventory

Tuesday, March 29, 2005

Due to extremely high inventory on Pacific Gas and Electric Company's California Gas Transmission system, some nominations for gas day March 20, 2001 will be cut.

CGT issued a Customer-Specific OFO for March 20, and a System-Wide OFO for March 21. These OFOs remain in effect. Despite these measures, system inventory is forecast to exceed the maximum inventory level on March 20. Therefore, CGT will implement receipt point capacity allocations at all interconnects to manage inventory levels on its system.

Receipt point capacity allocations will be made in accordance with Rule 14 This link will open in a new window. At this point in time, CGT expects the following allocations will be necessary:

  •  Golden Gate Market Center nominations will be reduced to net zero packs.
  • At each interconnect point (Malin, Kern River Station, Topock, Daggett) nominations to Golden Gate Market Center accounts will be curtailed completely.
  • At each interconnection point (Malin, Kern River Station, Topock, Daggett) nominations using as-available transportation will be curtailed completely.
  • At each interconnection point (Malin, Kern River Station, Topock, Daggett) some cuts to nominations using firm transportation will also be necessary. Firm cuts will be made on a pro rata basis.

Allocations will take place when intraday 1 nominations are processed. All customers should review their Confirmed Nominations and Scheduled Volumes (100) Reports.

Maximum receipt point capacities will not increase for the intraday 2 nomination cycle.

Please contact your CGT Account Services Representative if you have further questions.
