Critical - Weather Alert Due to the extreme cold weather forecasted across WBIs System associated with Notice ID 7624, WBI requests that all customers manage their deliveries to not exceed the nominations equivalent hourly rate.
All capacities are subject to change based on weather, nominations and pipeline demand. Information will be updated in the event conditions change.
******************************************************************
Extreme cold weather is expected through Thursday, February 20, on WBI Energy's integrated and non-integrated transmission systems. Due to these conditions, WBI Energy is expecting all scheduled quantities and physical flows on both supply and demand to match. Shippers and operators should review all scheduled quantity reports for all cycles during this time.
Receipt point operators should factor in freeze offs and other cold weather conditions as necessary when confirming scheduled quantities. When necessary, WBI will issue underperformance reductions to those shippers not flowing their scheduled quantities. Physical takes at all delivery points will be limited to scheduled quantities. WBI Energy is expecting all operators, shippers, and end users to continuously manage their supply and takes during this time due to the inability of WBI Energy to handle any significant fluctuations due to limited line pack and storage volumes.

Pipeline Conditions Based upon recent and anticipated withdrawal quantities out of the Elk Basin Storage Field, WBI Transmission is nearing the minimum Interruptible Storage working gas levels at the Elk Basin Storage Field. It is anticipated that both interruptible storage withdrawals and non-primary firm and interruptible transportation services may be impacted due to transmission and storage constraints affecting gas moving from eastern supply points to delivery points in the Worland Subsystem. If you have any questions, please contact the scheduling department at 701-530-1630 or Nancy Senger at 701-530-1585.
