Instrument HSTOF/CELIAS on SOHO continues to monitor the heliosphere in a 14° strip for ENA in the energy interval, 58-88 keV for H and 28-58 keV/A for He. Here we update on the measured ENA flux and on the estimated thickness of the heliosheath in different directions normalized to the values based on the comparison between heliosheath ion fluxes measured by V1 and V2 and the ENA fluxes measured by SOHO in the frontal portion of the heliosphere, using specific models (Czechowski et al., Astron. & Astophys. 487, 329-335, 2008). We discuss the influence of energetic ion distribution in the heliosheath on the ENA production rate.
