[FORCE MAJEURE] JULESBURG COMPRESSOR STATION FORCE MAJEURE
SEV 5/5
Force Majeure1.045 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
REX declared force majeure at Julesburg Compressor Station effective Gas Day March 2, 2026, reducing operating capacity through Segment 240 (west-to-east direction) to 1.045 Bcf/d until further notice. This is Revision 3 and the force majeure remains active with no restoration timeline; primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of curtailment. The end date of 12/31/9000 confirms an open-ended outage with no known resolution.
Active REX FM at Julesburg CS caps westbound-to-eastbound throughput on Segment 240 at 1.045 Bcf/d until further notice, with firm service curtailments confirmed at risk; expect bullish pressure on Midcontinent and Chicago Citygate basis as Rockies/DJ Basin gas loses eastbound takeaway, and bearish pressure at CIG/Cheyenne Hub as supply backs up in the basin.
Reroute: Limited: Trailblazer Pipeline (TPC) is the primary alternative for Rockies eastbound gas, but Trailblazer leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX -- if the Julesburg FM affects shared infrastructure, Trailblazer reroute reliability is uncertain. CIG provides some alternative egress but does not serve the same downstream Midcontinent/Chicago markets.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #10
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.174 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Bertrand Compressor Station on REX Segment 250 remains operationally impaired, restricting eastbound capacity to 1.174 Bcf/d until further notice. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of not being scheduled -- a rare and serious escalation beyond interruptible-only curtailments. No restoration timeline has been provided.
REX Segment 250 eastbound restriction to 1.174 Bcf/d with primary firm service at risk signals severe Rockies takeaway constraint; expect bearish pressure at CIG/Cheyenne Hub as Rockies gas backs up, with bullish pressure at Midcontinent and Chicago Citygate as eastbound supply is reduced.
Reroute: None: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand Compressor Station on REX -- both pipes are simultaneously constrained by the same facility failure. No independent reroute exists for eastbound Rockies volumes.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #11
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.103 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Pipeline has restricted capacity on Segment 250 (West-to-East direction) to 1,103 MDth/d (1.103 Bcf/d) effective March 31, 2026, until further notice due to an ongoing operational issue at Bertrand Compressor Station. This is Update #11, indicating a prolonged unresolved outage. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service (ITS/AOR) are all at risk of not being scheduled, meaning even firm shippers face potential curtailments with no restoration timeline provided.
REX Segment 250 restriction to 1.103 Bcf/d with all service classes including primary firm at risk tightens Rockies-to-Midcontinent eastbound takeaway; expect bearish pressure at CIG and Opal as Rockies basin gas backs up, with bullish signals at Midcontinent and REX Zone 3 downstream delivery points -- Trailblazer is NOT an independent reroute as it shares Bertrand CS.
Reroute: None: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand Compressor Station on REX and is simultaneously constrained by the same facility failure -- these are not independent reroute options. No viable alternative exists for affected West-to-East REX volumes.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] BERTRAND COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE - UPDATE #13
SEV 5/5
Compressor Issue1.118 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express Bertrand Compressor Station is restricting Segment 250 westbound-to-eastbound (West to East) capacity to 1.118 Bcf/d until further notice, effective Gas Day May 1, 2026. This is Update #13, indicating a prolonged unresolved operational issue with no restoration timeline. Primary firm, secondary firm, and interruptible service are all at risk of not being scheduled, indicating curtailments across all service classes.
REX Segment 250 restricted to 1.118 Bcf/d W-to-E with primary and secondary firm at risk; expect bearish pressure at Rockies basin hubs (CIG, Cheyenne) as eastbound takeaway is curtailed and bullish pressure at Midcontinent and Chicago Citygate basis points versus Henry Hub -- no restoration timeline adds further upside risk to downstream markets.
Reroute: None: Trailblazer Pipeline leases capacity at Bertrand Compressor Station on REX -- a Bertrand CS constraint simultaneously affects Trailblazer, eliminating it as an independent reroute option. CIG provides some Rockies egress southward but cannot replicate REX eastbound volumes into the Midcontinent.

[FORCE MAJEURE] HAMILTON COMPRESSOR STATION FORCE MAJEURE
SEV 5/5
Force Majeure0.316 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
Rockies Express declared a force majeure at Hamilton Compressor Station effective Gas Day May 19, 2026, cutting 0.316 Bcf/d of operating capacity across Segments 360, 370, and 380 until further notice. Primary firm, secondary firm, and AOR/ITS service classes are all at risk of curtailment. This event is independent of and additive to the prior scheduled maintenance under Notice ID 13721.
REX force majeure removes 0.316 Bcf/d of westbound capacity across three segments with all service classes at risk; combined with existing Notice 13721 maintenance cuts, expect bullish pressure on Appalachian and Midwest basis (Dominion South, TETCO M2, Chicago Citygate) as Marcellus/Utica westbound takeaway tightens.
Reroute: Moderate: Rover Pipeline, TETCO M2, and TCO serve overlapping Appalachian westbound markets and may absorb some displaced volumes, but the additive impact of concurrent REX maintenance (Notice 13721) reduces available spare capacity on alternative routes.

[OPERATIONAL ALERT] CHEYENNE COMPRESSOR STATION OPERATIONAL ISSUE
SEV 4/5
Compressor Issue0.985 Bcf/dUntil Further Notice
REX experienced an operational issue at Cheyenne Compressor Station on January 20, 2026, reducing eastbound capacity on Segment 200 to 0.985 Bcf/d until further notice. This is Revision 3 of the notice, but the end date remains open-ended with primary firm, secondary firm, and ITS/AOR quantities all at risk of curtailment. No restoration timeline has been provided.
REX Segment 200 eastbound capacity capped at 0.985 Bcf/d with firm service at risk and no restoration timeline; expect bullish pressure on Midcontinent and Chicago Citygate basis as Rockies gas is unable to move east, with mild bearish pressure on Rockies/CIG hub as supply backs up in the basin.
Reroute: Limited: Trailblazer Pipeline serves the same Rockies-to-Midcontinent eastbound corridor, but Trailblazer leases capacity at Bertrand CS on REX -- simultaneous constraints at Cheyenne CS and Bertrand CS are correlated and cannot be treated as independent reroutes. CIG provides some partial alternative for DJ Basin volumes but cannot replace REX Segment 200 eastbound throughput at scale.
