Am I mistaken or did the natural gas shut in go up since yesterday.  That is, more gas off line Wednesday than Tuesday.

If true this would support pipeline, distribution problems.  Even the non damaged wells can't move their production.

Recall that after Katrina there was a time when the shut in rate improved and then reversed.  MMS explained that they then received a report that production was down.  Apparently, if MMS does not get a report, then they ASSUME that there is no problem with production and it does not appear as a shut-in.
