[Transwestern Pipeline] [Force Majeure] Force Majeure - Panhandle Lateral Compression- 9/17/26 thru 9/20/26 Revision 1

SEV 4/5Force Majeure0.088 Bcf/d4 days
Summary
Transwestern Pipeline declared force majeure on the Panhandle Lateral due to compressor station mechanical failure, effective September 17, 2026. This Revision 1 extends the event through September 20, 2026 (4 days total), reducing Panhandle Lateral Receipt and Delivery capacity from 0.263 Bcf/d to 0.175 Bcf/d -- a loss of 0.088 Bcf/d. Capacity is expected to return to normal on September 21, 2026 at 9:00 AM.
Trading note
TW Panhandle Lateral FM removes 0.088 Bcf/d of receipt/delivery capacity through 9/20/26; expect mild bullish pressure at SoCal Border and Arizona delivery points as westbound supply tightens, with offsetting bearish pressure at Permian/San Juan basin as lateral gas cannot move westbound at full volume.
Reroute potential
Moderate: EPNG serves overlapping SoCal Border and Arizona markets and may absorb some displaced volumes, but if EPNG is simultaneously constrained, no California reroute remains. The Panhandle Lateral itself is a discrete lateral with no direct bypass.
