12.2 Predetermined Allocation Methodology
The types of allocation methodologies is a list from which two
parties may agree. The upstream or downstream party providing
the point confirmation should submit the PDA to Gulf South after
or during confirmation and before the start of the gas day. The
PDA standard allocation methods shall include ranked, pro rata,
percentage, swing, and operator provided value, as such terms are
used in the NAESB Standards. The party responsible for custody
transfer (the party performing the measurement function) should
provide the allocation. The same standard allocation methods
shall be available for use at all points.
Gulf South will accept standard methodology types from the
upstream or downstream custody transfer party who is providing
the point confirmation before the start of the gas day. Gulf
South shall send back "confirmation" of receipt of the pre-
determined allocation within 15 minutes.
Only one PDA allocation methodology can be applied per allocation
period. A new allocation detail may be needed when a nomination
changes. If the two parties cannot agree upon an allocation
methodology, pro rata based upon confirmed nominations shall be
used as the default method. An Operator PDA submitted after 9:00
a.m. on the first day of the month is subject to Gulf South's
approval, must be submitted by paper copy via fax or mail and,
unless prior authorization is received from all affected
Customer(s), must contain the signatures of all affected
Customer(s) signifying agreement to the proposed changes.
