SoCalGas, L.A. Fire Department Unveil Giant Shovel on National 8-1-1 Day to Raise Public Awareness of the Importance of Having Utilities Marked Before Digging

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- In recognition of National 8-1-1 Day, Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) and Los Angeles Fire Department officials today unveiled a giant 30-foot tall shovel to remind the public about the dangers of hitting utility lines when digging, and to increase awareness of the need to call 811 to have utility lines marked before any home or commercial digging project. Photos of the event are available here. "About 60 percent of pipeline damage due to digging is caused by homeowners or contractors who do not call 811 before they dig," said Jimmie Cho, SoCalGas senior vice president of gas operations and system integrity. "They have no idea where buried pipelines may be, and that's not safe. By contrast, when people do call 811, there is a 99.9 percent chance no damage will occur to a buried pipeline or other utility—which means most of these accidental dig-ins are preventable." "We want to bring attention to this to increase public safety," said Trevor M. Richmond, Deputy Chief, Bureau Commander, LAFD Operations Valley Bureau. "Pipelines can be located anywhere—under streets, sidewalks and private property. And hitting one while digging, planting or doing demolition work can not only cause property damage and loss of utility service, it can cause serious injury." "Calling 811 is a quick and easy way to ensure that any digging project is safe, protecting home owners, construction workers and property," said Los Angeles City Councilmember Bob Blumenfield. "The recent explosion in Woodland Hills is a prime example of the importance of calling 811 because with gas, you never can be too safe." 811 is the national phone number designated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) that connects professionals and homeowners who plan to dig with a local call center. The call center collects information about the planned dig site then communicates with the appropriate utility companies, which send professional utility locating technicians to identify and mark the approximate location of lines. Raising public awareness of the importance of calling 811 before digging is especially timely in the wake of a recent incident involving a Woodland Hills couple who lost their home due to an explosion and fire, after a contractor hired to do plumbing repairs on their property damaged a gas line. By following policy and procedures, two SoCalGas employees helped to ensure no one was injured in the incident. There were more than 3,000 cases of accidental damage from digging to natural gas lines in SoCalGas' service territory last year. SoCalGas' giant shovel will continue to be displayed for several months in various locations around the company's service territory to bring ongoing attention to the importance of pipeline safety.

Sempra Energy's Second-Quarter 2017 Earnings Rise

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 4, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today reported second-quarter 2017 earnings of $259 million, or $1.03 per diluted share, up from $16 million, or $0.06 per diluted share, in the second-quarter 2016. On an adjusted basis, Sempra Energy's second-quarter 2017 earnings increased to $276 million, or $1.10 per diluted share, from $200 million, or $0.79 per diluted share, in last year's second quarter. "Increased operating earnings in our utility and infrastructure businesses through the first half of the year allow us to raise our 2017 earnings guidance," said Debra L. Reed, chairman, president and CEO of Sempra Energy. "Strong operating results were coupled with positive regulatory outcomes, including the final regulatory decision in the Cost-of-Capital proceeding, which provides greater visibility to earnings at our California utilities over the next two years. Earlier this week, Southern California Gas Co. was able to resume limited injections at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility after receiving regulatory approval in mid-July. Additionally, our Mexican business continues to expand, taking an important step forward in developing infrastructure for the promising new liquids market in Mexico." Sempra Energy's earnings for the first six months of 2017 were $700 million, or $2.77 per diluted share, compared with $369 million, or $1.47 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2016. Adjusted earnings for the first six months of 2017 were $714 million, or $2.83 per diluted share, compared with $625 million, or $2.48 per diluted share, in the first six months of 2016. These results reflect certain significant items as described in the following table of GAAP earnings, reconciled to adjusted earnings, for the second quarter and first six months of 2017 and 2016: Three months ended June 30, Six months ended June 30, 2017 2016 2017 2016 (Unaudited; Dollars, except EPS, and shares, in millions) As Recast Adjustment for Share- Based Comp.

See Table A in the appendix for information regarding non-GAAP financial measures and descriptions of adjustments above. SEMPRA UTILITIES On July 13, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) issued a final ruling approving a two-year extension through 2019 for San Diego Gas & Electric (SDG&E) and Southern California Gas Co. (SoCalGas) to file their next applications in the Cost-of-Capital proceeding at the CPUC. The CPUC decision, which is consistent with the Cost-of-Capital assumptions provided for SDG&E and SoCalGas in the five-year financial plan at Sempra Energy's 2017 Analyst Conference, adopts an authorized return on equity of 10.2 percent and 10.05 percent for SDG&E and SoCalGas, respectively, through 2019. San Diego Gas & Electric Second-quarter 2017 earnings for SDG&E were $149 million, compared with $100 million in the second quarter 2016, due primarily to higher CPUC base margin and lower operating costs. In last year's second quarter, due to the final 2016-18 General Rate Case decision, SDG&E recorded a $31 million after-tax refund to ratepayers of benefits from tax repairs deductions, offset by a $9 million after-tax retroactive benefit for first-quarter 2016 earnings. For the first six months of 2017, SDG&E's earnings were $304 million, compared with $236 million in the same period last year. Southern California Gas Co. In the second quarter 2017, SoCalGas had earnings of $58 million, compared with a net loss of $1 million in last year's second quarter, due primarily to an after-tax impairment of $13 million in the second quarter 2016 based on the CPUC's decision related to the proposed North-South pipeline project. Additionally, in last year's second quarter, due to the final 2016-18 General Rate Case decision, SoCalGas recorded a $49 million after-tax refund to ratepayers of benefits from tax repairs deductions, offset by a $12 million after-tax retroactive benefit for first-quarter 2016 earnings. In the first half of 2017, SoCalGas' earnings were $261 million, up from $198 million in the first half of 2016. On July 31, SoCalGas resumed limited injections at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility after receiving regulatory approval earlier in the month from the CPUC and California's Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR). The regulatory agencies certified that SoCalGas had met the conditions of the state's rigorous safety review. Sempra South American Utilities In the second quarter 2017, Sempra South American Utilities had earnings of $45 million, compared with $43 million in the second quarter 2016. For the first six months of 2017, earnings for Sempra South American Utilities were $92 million, compared with $81 million in the first six months last year. SEMPRA INFRASTRUCTURE Sempra Mexico Sempra Mexico recorded a net loss of $9 million in the second quarter 2017, compared with earnings of $57 million in the second quarter 2016, due primarily to a $47 million impairment the company recorded on the Termoélectrica de Mexicali power plant, which is being held for sale, as well as unfavorable foreign-currency and inflation effects. For the first six months of 2017, Sempra Mexico had earnings of $39 million, compared with $75 million in the same period last year. Yesterday, Mexican subsidiary IEnova announced several U.S.-dollar-denominated, long-term capacity agreements with Valero to develop three new liquids terminals – in Mexico City, Puebla and the Port of Veracruz. These projects represent IEnova's first ventures in Mexico's emerging $10 billion liquids market. Sempra Renewables Second-quarter 2017 earnings for Sempra Renewables were $23 million, up from $12 million in 2016, due primarily to higher earnings for solar assets placed into service during 2016. In the first half of 2017, earnings for Sempra Renewables were $34 million, compared with $26 million in the first half of 2016. Sempra LNG & Midstream In the second quarter 2017, Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded earnings of $27 million, compared with a net loss of $149 million in the second quarter 2016. Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded a $28 million after-tax recovery in 2017 related to last year's permanent releases of pipeline capacity, compared with a related $123 million after-tax loss in 2016. For the first six months of 2017, Sempra LNG & Midstream recorded earnings of $28 million, compared with a net loss of $181 million in the first six months of 2016. The company announced today that, based on several factors, it believes it is reasonable to expect that the Cameron LNG liquefaction-export project's first liquefaction train could be delayed into 2019, with the other two trains following throughout 2019 and with no earnings expected in 2018. Despite the revisions in the schedule, the company does not expect any material impact on the long-term economics of the project and anticipates earnings from the project of $300 million to $350 million in 2020. 2017 EARNINGS GUIDANCE Today, Sempra Energy raised its GAAP 2017 earnings-per-share guidance range to $4.95 to $5.25 and its adjusted 2017 earnings-per-share guidance range to $5 to $5.30, both from the previous earnings-per-share range of $4.85 to $5.25. The company also affirmed its previous 2018 earnings-per-share guidance range of $5.30 to $5.80.

Sempra Energy's IEnova Unit, Valero Sign Contracts For Liquid Fuels Projects In Mexico

SAN DIEGO, Aug. 3, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Sempra Energy (NYSE: SRE) today announced that its Mexican subsidiary, Infraestructura Energética Nova, S.A.B. de C.V. (IEnova) (BMV: IENOVA), signed long-term contracts with a subsidiary of Valero Energy Corp. for the storage capacity of the liquid fuels marine terminal to be constructed in Veracruz and two inland storage facilities to be constructed in Puebla and Mexico City. The three liquid fuels projects represent an estimated capital investment of U.S. $275 million. These facilities are IEnova's first ventures in Mexico's emerging $10 billion liquids market. "These projects will lay a solid foundation for us to expand this new business line into additional terminal opportunities and liquids transportation investments," said Joseph A. Householder, corporate group president of infrastructure businesses for Sempra Energy. "We plan to continue to build our strategic relationships as projects such as these fit IEnova's and Sempra Energy's core competencies." The 20-year concession agreement with the Port Authority of Veracruz awarded last month to develop, construct and operate a receipt, storage and send-out liquid fuels marine terminal also was signed today. The Veracruz terminal will have a capacity of 1.4 million barrels of gasoline, diesel and jet fuel to supply the central region of Mexico. The two storage terminals to be built and operated by IEnova in Puebla and Mexico City will have initial storage capacities of approximately 500,000 barrels and 800,000 barrels, respectively. IEnova will be responsible for the implementation of the projects, including permitting, engineering, procurement, construction, maintenance, financing and operations. IEnova expects the two inland storage terminals to be put in service in 2019, and the marine terminal, at the end of 2018. After commercial operations, and subject to all relevant regulatory and corporate authorizations, as well as the approval of the Port Authority of Veracruz, Valero will have the option to acquire 50 percent of the equity in all three assets. Sempra Energy, based in San Diego, is a Fortune 500 energy services holding company with 2016 revenues of more than $10 billion. The Sempra Energy companies' more than 16,000 employees serve approximately 32 million consumers worldwide.

SoCalGas Statement on Metro's Zero Emission Plan

Today the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transit Agency Board of Directors endorsed a zero emission plan. This plan would transition its fleet of buses to all-electric by 2030. SoCalGas issued the following statement in response: “More than 25 years ago, Metro made the decision to become the cleanest bus fleet in America by switching from diesel to buses that run on compressed natural gas. As a result, the air in Southern California became cleaner. The number of cancer-causing particulates and smog-forming pollutants from buses decreased dramatically; and greenhouse gases dropped by about 150 tons per day. With the replacement of fossil gas with renewable natural gas as voted by the Board last month, the greenhouse gases will reach zero, far cleaner than electric buses given California’s current electricity mix.” ###

SoCalGas Statement on State's Announcement Confirming Safety of Aliso Canyon Natural Gas Storage Facility

LOS ANGELES, July 19, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and Division of Oil, Gas, and Geothermal Resources (DOGGR) cleared SoCalGas to resume limited injections at the Aliso Canyon natural gas storage facility as described here . SoCalGas issued the following statement in response to the state's announcement: "Aliso Canyon is an important part of Southern California's energy system, supporting the reliability of natural gas and electricity services for millions of people. SoCalGas has met—and in many cases, exceeded—the rigorous requirements of the state's comprehensive safety review. "Under new regulations, gas will only flow through newly installed and pressure-tested, inner steel tubing. The outer casing of wells only will serve as a secondary layer of protection. At the state's direction, the field also will be operated at a reduced pressure, providing an added margin of safety. "Additionally, SoCalGas has introduced industry-leading technology and practices in our operations at Aliso Canyon, including: Around-the-clock pressure monitoring of all wells in a 24-hour operations center; Daily patrols to visually examine every well four times each day; Daily scanning of each well, using sensitive infrared thermal imaging cameras that can detect leaks; and Enhanced training for our employees and contractors. "Injection will not resume immediately. State agencies have outlined steps that must be completed before injections can resume, including a leak survey of the facility and a flyover to measure methane emissions at the site. "We are committed to maintaining a transparent and open dialogue with the communities near Aliso Canyon and will provide regular updates on our progress at socalgas.com/alisoupdates."

SoCalGas Vice President for Customer Solutions, Lisa Alexander issued the following statement in response to the draft plan: “SoCalGas applauds the Commissioners of the San Pedro Bay Ports and Mayors Garcetti and Garcia for leading the charge to deliver cleaner air to communities across Southern California. “By including near-zero emission trucks fueled by renewable natural gas in the Clean Air Action Plan, the ports showed their commitment to making immediate improvements in air quality and public health. “Near-zero, natural gas technology is available today and is supported by the South Coast Air Quality Management District and Mayor Garcetti’s Sustainable Freight Advisory Committee as an immediate solution to combat air pollution and slow climate change. “By deploying heavy-duty trucks fueled by renewable natural gas now, we can lower greenhouse gas emissions from trucks serving the ports by 80 percent and can reduce air pollution by 90 percent, providing much needed relief for under-served communities living near the ports and along freight corridors all across the region.” ###
