14 1.3.9 Communication with GRTgaz The Portal will be your working tool for communicating with GRTgaz. Moreover : EDIGAS is not affected by the introduction of TRANS@ctions A new FTP platform is available for files not supported by EDIGAS 14

15 2 Contracts and Capacity 2.1 Access to your Contracts By clicking on Consult your Contracts, you ll be redirected to the website etransmission.grtgaz.com, where you can consult and manage your contracts, amendments and invoices, if you have opted for the electronic signature of contractual documents. 2.2 Overview of the Capacity Management Process The following flowchart describes the capacity management process on the Upstream network as well as on the Downstream network. This process is the same on both networks, with two differences: On the Upstream network, you can check the level of available capacity before booking your capacity. You can transfer all or part of your capacity on some points of the upstream network. 15

16 2.3 Subscribing capacity on the Upstream Netwok The portal allows you to subscribe capacity on the following points of the network : o Network Interconnection Points o North/South Link o H-gas to L-gas and L-gas to H-gas Conversion Points o Transmission-Production Interface Point NB : On Transmission-Storage Interface Points and Transmission-LNG Terminal Interface Points, GRTgaz applies an automatic capacity allocation. In the portal you can check the capacity that has been allocated. The TRANS@ction portal allows you also to track your capacity transfers : o Full capacity transfers o Transfers of capacity right-of-use MT/LT capacity request A MT / LT capacity request could be multi-annual, seasonal, annual, seasonal or monthly. The process for booking MT / LT capacity in TRANS@ctions includes four steps : 1. Consulting commercialised and available capacity 2. Searching for the corresponding Capacity Offer 3. Creating, Saving and Confirming your capacity request 4. Tracking your request 16

17 Step 1 : Consulting available capacity Click on «Capacities & Services> Manage your LT/MT Main Network Request> Consult the Marketed Capacities» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : NB : You can consult any file published by GRTgaz (at kwh 25 C or MWh 0 C) or download them in csv or xml formats (at kwh 25 C). These files are updated by GRTgaz at least 3 times a month. Step 2 : Searching for the corresponding Capacity Offer Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your LT/MT Main Network Request > Create a Capacity Request» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 17

18 Offer Coding Principle : Contractual Point Code Flow direction Type of Capacity (firm/interruptible) Type of Subscription (annual/seasonal/monthly) NB : If you enter the first letters of the Code or the PCR name, all offers associated with this PCR will be displayed (regardless of the type of capacity or type of subscription). Step 3 : Creating, Saving and Confirming a MT/LT capacity request Life cycle of a MT/LT capacity request and related status: 18

19 Shipper GRTgaz Capacity request creation Cancelled Initialised Request registration Cancelled Converted Reservation Issued Request confirmation Sent Cancelled Request processed Feasibility Accepted Reservation Capacity Allocated Refused Accepted Refused Requests verified Export Creating the request : Drill down the capacity offer by clicking on the «+» 19

20 NB: The request can be a feasibility or a reservation Saving and Confirming the request : Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your LT/MT Main Network Request > Registrate your Capacity Requests» Then click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your LT/MT Main Network Request > Validate your Capacity Requests» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 20

21 Remember to save and confirm the request, because requests will only be processed by GRTgaz if they have been confirmed (i.e. Sent status). Step 4 : Tracking the request Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your LT/MT Main Network Request > Create a Capacity Request» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 21

22 Click on the reference of the request to display the details: 22

23 2.3.2 Requests for Short Term capacity : Daily and Auctions Life cycle of a Short Term capacity request in TRANS@ctions and related status : The process for a ST capacity request in TRANS@ctions includes three steps : 1. Consulting available capacity 2. Creating, Confirming and Tracking your capacity request 3. Checking the auction results if any Step 1 : Checking available capacity Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your Short Term Main Network Request > Consult The Short Term Available Capacities» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 23

24 NB : Click on the «Daily capacity request» link to access directly to the capacity request screen. Step 2 : Creating/Confirming/Tracking a ST capacity request Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your Short Term Main Network Request» or Capacities & Services > Manage your Auctions Requests» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu to get access to the creation and confirmation submenus of your ST capacity request : The procedures are similar to those for MT/LT requests. The main difference is that the request does not need to be registered, as it can be approved directly after initialisation. In the case of an auctions capacity request, enter a level of capacity and an auction price in / MWh 0 C (whatever the unit chosen for the input) Requests for Auction capacity Life cycle of a request for Auction capacity in TRANS@ctions Step 3 : Checking results and the auction price Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your Auctions Requests > Consult The auction results» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 24

25 NB: You can export the results of an auction in a csv file by clicking on the "Export.csv" button Capacity transfers Full capacity transfers : In the case of a full transfer, all the rights and obligations relating to the transferred capacity are transferred from the transferor to the transferee. The full rights and obligations being transferred, the full transfer impacts the level of subscribed capacities of each shipper. The full capacity transfers can be made via Capsquare or joint notification ( then letter) to GRTgaz. In both cases, the capacity acquired and transferred are updated and can be consulted via TRANS@ctions in the Capacities Portfolio (PSC) menu. Transfers of capacity right-of-use : In the case of a right-of-use transfer, the transferor shipper (first holder of the capacity) continues to be liable to GRTgaz for all the obligations relating to the capacity on which the right of use has been transferred. The shipper receiving the transfer, for their part, acquires the use of that capacity. The transfer therefore impacts on the operational capacity of both shippers concerned, and not on the capacity subscribed for by the transferor. The transfers of capacity right-of-use on the Upstream Network are made exclusively on Capsquare. 25

26 The capacity acquired and transferred is updated and can be accessed via in the Services and Capacities Portfolio (PSC). Checking your acquired and/or transferred capacities in the Services and Capacities Portfolio (PSC).

Searching for the corresponding Capacity Offer 2. Creating, Saving and Confirming your capacity request 3. Tracking your request Step 1 : Searching for the capacity offer Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your Regional Network Requests > Create a Capacity Request» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 27

28 Offer Coding Principle : Contractual Point Code Flow direction Type of Capacity (firm/interruptible/empty) Type of Subscription (annual/seasonal/monthly/daily) NB : If you don't fill the "Capacity type" field on the regional network, you will create a single request for firm and interruptible capacities Step 2: Creating, Saving and Validating your request The procedure is the same as for Upstream Network Requests. The corresponding input screen is below : 28

29 NB: By clicking on "Monthly Services and Capacities Portfolio", you can check the yearly and monthly capacities that you have already subscribed on this point. As on the Upstream Network, you can make a feasibility request or a Reservation. From now on, you must enter the extra capacity you need, regardless the time step of your subscription. If you have already subscribed the capacity on this point and you want to change it to higher level of capacity, you must enter a positive request. Similarly, if you have already subscribed the capacity on this point and you want to change it to lower this level of subscription, you must enter a negative request. Step 3 : Tracking your requests Click on «Capacities & Services > Manage your Regional Network Requests > Consult your Capacity Requests» on the top bar menu or the homepage menu : 29

30 2.4.2 Manage your Right of Use Transfers (RoU) During a Right of Use Transfer of downstream capacities on a delivery point, the transferor shipper is allowed to transfer the Operational downstream capacity, while keeping it in its contractual portfolio. The Right of Use Transfer covers at least a full month and must be entered in TRANS@ctions before the 15th of month M-1 to start the first of the month M. For the Right of Use Transfer on a Delivery Point, the whole capacity on the dedicated point will be transferred (annual, monthly, daily, firm or interruptible) and any new subscription during the transfer period will automatically be transferred to the transferee. Re-transferring a transferred capacity is not permitted. You can cancel a RoU (before starting) or interrupt (once started) by informing GRTgaz.
