Revised- Market and Production Constraints

SEV 3/5Capacity ConstraintUntil further notice
Summary
Transco Revision 3 of its Market and Production Constraints notice (original posted 08/17/2026, effective 08/18/2026) details multiple active TSB constraints across the system. The most binding constraints are Compressor Station 160 (Zone 5, 1,726 Mdt/d available, 0.0% headroom per live data), Central Penn Line South N-to-S MP 1.0 (Zone 6, 2,093 Mdt/d available but live data shows 99.7% utilization at 0.3% headroom), SELA laterals (both directions at 0 available), TSB MP 1412.98 to MP 1369.45 (0 available, 100% utilization), and Compressor Station 60 MP 588.62 (200 Mdt/d NSRP only, 100% utilization on primary). HBLV swing capacity is at 0 or near-0 for Zones 2 through 6, indicating the system has no no-notice swing cushion available. This is a revision with escalation triggers present: Compressor Station 60 and multiple Zone 5/6 TSBs are at 0% headroom with primary firm restricted, and the SELA segment shows zero capacity in both directions at PRIMARY priority.
Trading note
Transco Zone 5/6 Mid-Atlantic and Northeast capacity is severely constrained with CS 160 at 0.0% headroom (1.73 Bcf/d scheduled against full operating capacity) and Central Penn Line South at 99.7% utilization; simultaneously CS 60 (Zone 3, 1.93 Bcf/d, 100% utilized) restricts southbound Gulf Coast receipts, and SELA laterals show zero PRIMARY capacity in both directions -- expect bullish pressure at Transco Zone 5 and Zone 6 basis versus Henry Hub, with the SELA/Gulf Coast zones facing mild bearish pressure as southbound throughput is saturated and HBLV swing is exhausted across Zones 2-6.
Reroute potential
Limited: Tennessee Gas Pipeline (TGP) provides partial reroute for Northeast and Southeast volumes, but Transco is the dominant pipeline in these corridors and TGP lacks equivalent capacity in Zone 5/6 markets; Southern Natural Gas (unmonitored) could theoretically absorb some Southeast volumes, but SNG real-time conditions are unknown.

To the extent that the total nominated quantities or requested HBLV quantities exceed the available capacity/swing in the charts identified above, Transco will adjust these quantities based on its priority of service, in accordance with the General Terms and Conditions of Transco's FERC Gas Tariff.
This information is provided as a summary of significant information that coincides with information currently available under Transco's Operational Capacity report and is intended to provide customers with an easy reference source. Transco may be required to institute capacity restrictions at locations or in segments other than those identified above if operational conditions dictate. As operational conditions change, Transco will provide notice, via 1Line, of any additional segments or locations where transportation services or HBLVs may be limited and of any changes in available capacity in any of the identified areas.
