Notice Text:
Northwest Pipeline is updating the current Underrun Entitlement Warning North of
Kemmerer (Notice ID 23-170) and is declaring a Stage II (8%) Underrun Entitlement
for all Receiving Parties North of Kemmerer effective Saturday, September 2, 2023
until further notice.
The current system operating balances do not support excess gas being left on the
system from either shippers or interconnects. With the Labor Day Holiday weekend,
limited injection capability at Jackson Prairie and scheduled maintenance between
the Vernal and Green River compressor stations that will take place and shut in the
Clay Basin storage facility on Northwest Pipelines side, from September 14th through
September 23rd, the Northwest Pipeline system will be operationally limited to take
any extra gas from customers.
Northwest encourages customers to diligently manage natural gas deliveries to
ensure that they are in-line with customers’ takes to avoid leaving excess gas on the
system. Northwest appreciates customer support during this upcoming period and
will provide system updates based on changing operating conditions.
If you have any questions, please contact your Commercial Services Representative or
