13. OPERATING CONDITIONS (Continued)
nominating, scheduling and balancing for the receipt or delivery of gas
at points of interconnection. As part of the provisions of these
agreements, Transporter will allow the trading of imbalances between
Receipt Points or between Delivery Points located in the same
geographical area.
13.17 Pre-Determined Allocations ("PDAs"). In the event an OBA
is not in effect at a particular interconnecting point on
Transporter's system, the following will apply:
Transporter and Shipper shall list in Shipper’s service agreement
allocation methodology types agreed upon: Ranked, Pro Rata, Percentage,
Swing, and Operator Provided Value. (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.16)
The same standard allocation methodologies
shall be available for use at all points. (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.17)
The types of allocation methodologies is a list
from which two parties may agree. If the two parties cannot
agree upon an allocation methodology, pro rata based upon
confirmed nominations should be used as the default method.
The party responsible for custody transfer (the party
performing the measurement function) should provide the
allocation. (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.18)
The timing for reporting daily operational
allocations after the gas has flowed is within one business day
after end of gas day. If the best available data for reporting
daily operational allocations is the scheduled quantity, that
quantity should be used for the daily operational allocation.
(NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.21)
This standard applies to the daily provision of operational
allocated quantities whether they are provided pursuant to NAESB
WGQ Standard 2.4.3 or NAESB WGQ Standard 2.4.4.
Upon request to its Transportation Service Provider (TSP), a
Service Requester (SR) should be provided operational allocated
quantities pursuant to WGQ Standard 2.4.3 or 2.4.4 for the transaction(s)
which have been scheduled by such TSP for the SR.
A TSP can agree to send the operational allocated quantities on a
daily basis to a SR rather than accept the Request for Information
(NAESB WGQ Standard 2.4.7) for operational allocated quantities.
A TSP is not required to support requests for operational allocated
quantities other than on an "all locations for a SR basis." Where a
TSP has determined to support this standard in a manner other than:
a) providing specific operational allocated quantities in response
to a request for same, or
b) providing operational allocated quantities on an "all locations
for an SR basis," then the SR can rely on the absence of a line
item(s) provided by a TSP as indicative that the particular line
item(s)’ scheduled quantities are operational allocated quantities.
(NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.21)
The time limitation for disputes of allocations shall be 6 months
from the date of the initial month-end allocation with a 3-month
rebuttal period. This standard shall not apply in the case of
deliberate omission or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact.
Parties' other statutory or contractual rights shall not otherwise be
diminished by this standard. (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.26)
