Abstract: Recently, Public Service Company of Colorado (PSCo) experienced low gas capacities on cold peak days because of a dramatic increase in customer load growth in a 384 -square-mile area of northern Colorado. To compound the problem, the natural gas required had to be transported 59 miles from the Mesa Compressor Station to the northern most point of the system. Therefore, PSCo determined that remedial action was required to supply this peak demand by using gas from local gas fields. An abundant gas supply was readily available from Wyoming (34 miles away), but the Btu value and specific gravity were not compatible with the PSCo system. Use of the Wyoming gas could create overfiring therefore, PSCo adjusted or reorificed its customers gas appliances so the nearby Wyoming gas supply could be used.
