[FORCE MAJEURE] JULESBURG COMPRESSOR STATION FORCE MAJEURE
SEV 5/5
Force Majeure1.045 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
REX declared a force majeure at Julesburg Compressor Station effective Gas Day March 2, 2026, reducing operating capacity through Segment 240 to 1.045 Bcf/d westbound-to-eastbound until further notice. This is Revision 3 of the notice; force majeure remains active with no restoration timeline, and primary firm, secondary firm, and ITS/AOR service are all at risk of curtailment. The end date of 12/31/9000 confirms this is an open-ended, unresolved outage.
Active REX Zone 1/2 force majeure caps eastbound flows at 1.045 Bcf/d through Segment 240 with no restoration date, placing primary firm service at risk and expected to widen Rockies/Midcontinent basis and support Waha and Midcontinent prices versus downstream Midwest delivery points.
Reroute: Limited: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX and is correlated to REX Zone 1 constraints; it cannot serve as an independent reroute. CIG and WICD offer partial Rockies egress alternatives but cannot fully replace REX Segment 240 eastbound capacity at this volume level.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #7
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.185 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline has restricted capacity in Segment 250 (West to East) to 1.185 Bcf/d at Bertrand Compressor Station, effective January 1, 2026, and continuing until further notice. Primary and secondary firm quantities as well as ITS/AOR service are all at risk of not being scheduled. This is Revision 3 of the notice, but escalation triggers are present: capacity loss exceeds 500,000 MMBtu/d, firm service curtailments are explicitly at risk, and no restoration timeline exists.
REX Bertrand CS restriction to 1.185 Bcf/d with all service classes at risk and no restoration timeline is a major Rockies egress constraint -- expect bullish pressure at Midcontinent and downstream Midwest/Appalachian basis points including NGPL Midcontinent and TETCO M2, with Rockies production likely shut-in or discounted at Opal.
Reroute: None: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX and is simultaneously constrained by the same facility failure -- these are not independent reroute options. No viable alternative exists for West-to-East REX Segment 250 volumes.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #10
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.174 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline has restricted capacity in Segment 250 (West to East) to 1.174 Bcf/d at Bertrand Compressor Station effective March 30, 2026, and continuing until further notice. Primary firm, secondary firm, and ITS/AOR service classes are all at risk of not being scheduled, indicating curtailments across all service tiers. No restoration timeline has been provided.
REX Bertrand CS restricts westbound Rockies egress to 1.174 Bcf/d with all firm service classes at risk -- expect bullish pressure on Midcontinent and Rockies basis with potential tightening at Chicago and Dawn as eastbound supply from Rockies/Uinta is reduced.
Reroute: None: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX and is simultaneously constrained by the same facility -- REX and Trailblazer are not independent reroute options. CIG and WICD provide limited upstream Rockies alternatives but cannot replace the eastbound egress volume lost on REX Segment 250.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #12
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.174 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline Bertrand Compressor Station operational issue restricts Segment 250 westbound-to-eastbound capacity to 1.174 Bcf/d until further notice, effective evening cycle April 1, 2026. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of not being scheduled. No restoration timeline has been provided.
REX Bertrand CS restricts eastbound capacity to 1.174 Bcf/d with primary firm at risk and no end date -- expect Rockies basis to weaken sharply versus Midcontinent and Appalachian markets, with tightening at downstream receipt points; Trailblazer is simultaneously affected at Bertrand and provides no independent reroute relief.
Reroute: None: REX and Trailblazer share Bertrand Compressor Station -- both are simultaneously constrained by the same facility, meaning Trailblazer cannot serve as an independent reroute for eastbound Rockies volumes. CIG and WICD offer limited upstream alternatives but cannot replicate eastbound REX throughput.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #9
SEV 4/5
Compressor Issue1.187 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline is restricting Segment 250 capacity to 1.187 Bcf/d westbound-to-eastbound through Bertrand Compressor Station, effective Gas Day March 3, 2026, until further notice. This is Update #9 / Revision 3, indicating an ongoing unresolved compressor issue with no restoration timeline. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of curtailment.
REX Segment 250 restriction to 1.187 Bcf/d at Bertrand CS with firm service at risk and no restoration timeline supports bullish Midcontinent and Rockies basis -- Trailblazer is simultaneously constrained at the same facility, eliminating the primary reroute alternative.
Reroute: None: REX and Trailblazer share Bertrand Compressor Station -- both are simultaneously constrained by the same facility, making Trailblazer a non-independent reroute option. CIG provides limited partial alternative for Rockies egress but cannot absorb displaced eastbound REX volumes at scale.
Rockies Express
[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #8
SEV 4/5
Compressor Issue1.181 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline Bertrand Compressor Station operational issue restricts Segment 250 westbound-to-eastbound capacity to 1.181 Bcf/d until further notice, effective February 3, 2026. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of curtailment. This is Revision 3 (Update #8) of an ongoing unresolved constraint with no restoration timeline.
REX Segment 250 restricted to 1.181 Bcf/d with primary and secondary firm service at risk; no restoration timeline escalates impact on Rockies-to-Midwest flows with correlated Trailblazer impairment at Bertrand CS, watch for tightening at Midcontinent and Chicago basis points.
Reroute: None: REX and Trailblazer share Bertrand Compressor Station -- both are simultaneously constrained by the same facility, making Trailblazer a non-independent reroute option. CIG provides limited Rockies egress alternative but cannot replace the full eastbound corridor capacity lost at Bertrand.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] CHEYENNE COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE
SEV 4/5
Compressor Issue0.985 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express experienced an operational issue at Cheyenne Compressor Station on January 20, 2026, reducing capacity through Segment 200 (West to East) to 0.985 Bcf/d until further notice. Primary firm, secondary firm, and ITS/AOR quantities are all at risk of not being scheduled. This is Revision 3 of the notice; the end date remains open-ended at 12/31/9000, indicating no restoration timeline has been established.
Escalation trigger applies: primary and secondary firm curtailments are at risk with no restoration timeline, keeping this at severity 4 -- the 0.985 Bcf/d West-to-East capacity restriction on REX Segment 200 tightens Rockies egress and supports Waha/Midcontinent basis widening versus downstream Midwest receipt points.
Reroute: Limited: Trailblazer Pipeline (TPC) provides some overlapping Rockies eastbound capacity, but Trailblazer leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX and may be simultaneously affected. Colorado Interstate Gas (CIG) provides partial Rockies egress alternative but does not fully replicate REX Zone 1 downstream reach.

[MAINTENANCE] REX MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE FOR APRIL 2026
SEV 3/5
Maintenance1.159 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice30 Days
REX is posting its full April 2026 monthly maintenance schedule affecting multiple compressor stations across Segments 240, 250, 300, 330, 380, and 400. The most significant West-to-East restriction is at Bertrand Compressor Station (Seg 250), where capacity is limited to 1.159 Bcf/d (Apr 2-10) and 1.174 Bcf/d (Apr 20-24), with primary and secondary firm service at risk of curtailment. Multiple East-to-West segments (Chandlersville, Columbus, Bainbridge, Washington Courthouse) are also restricted throughout the month, with capacities ranging from 1.840 to 3.023 Bcf/d.
REX Bertrand CS maintenance limits West-to-East capacity to 1.159 Bcf/d across two windows in April, with firm service at risk; Trailblazer is simultaneously constrained at the same facility, leaving no independent reroute and supporting mild Rockies/Midcontinent basis widening versus Chicago.
Reroute: None for Bertrand CS-affected volumes: REX and Trailblazer share Bertrand Compressor Station and are simultaneously constrained -- they are not independent reroute options. For Appalachian-side (Seg 380/330) East-to-West restrictions, Rover Pipeline and TETCO M2 provide partial westbound Appalachian alternatives, though capacity availability in April injection season may be limited.
