Provision of Interruption Information by DNOs to Transco NTS Andy Malins
Proposal Modify OAD to place an obligation on DNOs to provide their best estimate of the actual daily gas flows that will be available for Interruption.
Proposal Issue Transco NTS needs information on capacity available for interruption to aid management of transportation constraints and emergencies. Information required under current Offtake Arrangements Document is insufficient to enable optimum decisions to be made. Information required for start of winter 2005/06
Impact of Retaining Current Arrangements “Spare” capacity Int. SOQ Transco NTS need (and call for) 75kWh of interruption 100 100 Further actions required kWh Available Int cap. kWh 50 50 Shortfall
Interruption Information Interruption Manager predicts expected flows based on meter readings. Gives a realistic estimate of capacity available to be interrupted. Anticipated Impact on DNOs Minimal capital or development cost implication Minimal system or process changes Information Based on SOQs Predictive Source Pre-Hivedown Yes Transco OAD No DNOs Proposal
