Columbia Gulf Transmission, LLC (CGT) notifies customers of the following update regarding the Force Majeure at Red Mountain Compressor Station Units 2901 & 2902 in Louisiana. The Force Majeure was declared on October 8, 2024, due to unexpected and uncontrollable vibration readings at Units 2901 & 2902, which required an immediate reduction in run rates to maintain the safety and reliability of the Units while also maintaining a level of partial operation. The current capacity reduction through AlexSEG of 2,600,000 Dth reflects both Units operating at a reduced run rate. The work necessitated by the Force Majeure to return Unit 2901 to full operation is tentatively scheduled to occur on Tuesday, December 3, 2024. During the work, CGT currently anticipates the backhaul capacity through AlexSEG may be reduced to a level as low as 2,350,000 Dth. Once the work on Unit 2901 is complete, CGT anticipates it will be able to increase the backhaul capacity through AlexSEG to a level between 2,640,000 Dth and Total Capacity. The logistics involved with the commencement of work necessitated by the Force Majeure to return Unit 2902 to full operation is ongoing. At this time, CGT anticipates Unit 2902 will remain at a reduced run rate through December 2024.
