Sabine to reopen three more interconnects at Henry Hub Thursday

Washington (Platts)--5Oct2005

Sabine Pipe Line LLC will lift its force majeure at three more pipeline
interconnects with Henry Hub effective Thursday, bringing the number of its
operational interconnects at the hub to six. 
     The pipeline said in a notice to shippers Wednesday that that it will
accept hub nominations for Thursday deliveries from Sabine to the Acadian
pipeline, receipts from the Jefferson Island pipeline to Sabine and receipts
from and deliveries to Trunkline Gas. 
     Sabine earlier this week lifted its force majeure for receipts from
Natural Gas Pipeline, deliveries to and receipts from Gulf South Pipeline and
deliveries to Columbia Gulf Transmission. 
     The force majeure the pipeline declared Sept 22 because of Hurricane Rita
remains in effect for hub interconnects with the other seven pipelines that
interconnect with the South Louisiana facility. Henry Hub, the delivery point
named in NYMEX's natural gas futures contract, suffered flood damage and lost
power during the hurricane. 
     NYMEX on Tuesday lifted the force majeure it declared on October and
September deliveries under its contracts.
