2 Outline FERC’s Overall Strategy Market Overview Confidence building: price index/reporting initiative Conclusion (Opinions: my own, not Commission’s)

3 FERC has a 3-pronged strategy. Effective Rules Infrastructure Rules Enforcement Competitive Markets Just & Reasonable Outcomes Strategic Approach

4 Natural Gas & Electric Market Space Gas Supply Trading Venues Futures (NYMEX) Electronic Platforms Bilateral Trading Voice Brokers Pipelines & Storage Players Delivered Market Physical Nat Gas Generation Transmission & Pumped Storage Delivered Market Phys Electric Power Gas to fuel power generation RTO’s & ISO’s Price Contributors -Fixed price buyers & sellers -Speculators Price Takers -Indexed price buyers & sellers Source: FERC-OMTR&OMOI Nat Gas & Electric Derivatives Nat Gas & Electric Clearing

5 Price Index Background Sharp reduction in energy trading in 2002 Instances of index manipulation led to FERC and CFTC scrutiny Many companies decided not to “risk” reporting Fewer fixed price deals, more “at index” Price index developers had less data to create indices Indices still essential component of markets for pricing deals; setting royalty payments; tracking prices; settling futures contracts; hedging gas transportation costs; pricing cash-outs or penalties in tariffs; and benchmarking prudent transactions Need to restore confidence in indices—they must be accurate, reliable, and transparent

6 Essentials in the Policy Statement Focuses on near-term improvements to existing system of voluntary reporting Outlines standards expected of both index developers and price reporters Embraces “safe harbor” approach to encourage more reporting Prospectively requires indices in gas tariffs (i.e., for cash-outs) to meet standards and “reflect adequate liquidity” Directs Staff to monitor and report developments under Policy Statement Notes that failure of industry to respond could result in mandatory price reporting

7 Standards for Price Index Developers 1.Code of conduct and confidentiality 2.Completeness—maximum information and liquidity measures 3.Data verification, error correction, and monitoring 4.Verifiability—process audit 5.Accessibility—for customers and FERC

8 Standards for Reporting Prices 1.Code of conduct—on trading and reporting 2.Source of data—independent from traders 3.Data reported—each bilateral physical trade, with price, volume, buy/sell indicator, delivery/receipt location, date and time, term 4.Error resolution process 5.Data retention and review—3 year retention, independent audit

9 Monitoring the Policy Statement OMOI is engaging in proactive monitoring, sending message to industry that FERC is impatient to see improvement Status report given to FERC at October 22 meeting Survey of industry on trading and reporting before and after issuance of Policy Statement conducted in October OMOI is meeting with trade associations to get input and encourage members to report trades OMOI is meeting with index developers to review adherence to standards Workshop on liquidity held at FERC in November

10 Survey Sent to 266 companies—producers, generators, traders, LDCs, utilities, industrial users Covers trading and reporting practices before and after Policy Statement—ten questions: Do you trade? What do you trade? Do you report? What portion of trades are reported? Are trades reported to one or to more than one index developer? Do you report through exchanges or to publications? What transaction details to you report? Who submits the report? Do you have an audit process? Do you have a code of conduct for trading and/or reporting?

11 Liquidity Issues Index used in gas tariff must meet standards and “reflect adequate liquidity” at the relevant location Economic literature on liquidity not helpful OMOI must report to FERC on index publishers and liquidity January 2003 Workshop on how to measure adequate liquidity held at FERC in November
