Introduction

• In order to overcome the constraints and technological obsolescence of the application

currently being used (CAMINUS/AltraWEB), as well as direct the management and the

support for the development of new commercial processes resulting from national and

European regulations, Snam Rete Gas has started a specific project to create a new

information system dedicated to the commercial area

• The initiative was launched in November 2012 with the establishment of a transversal work

group dedicated to directing the various requirements to all the internal and/or external

processes involved

• New application for the management of the Gas Logistics area to cover the planning process of the transportation, allocation and gas statement.

Planning and Programming of the transportation service

As an example:

• Annual Planning• Half Year Planning• Monthly Planning• Weekly Planning• Planning at 30 days• Planning Authority• Daily Planning (Nomination)• Intraday Planning (Re-

Nomination)• Management of products of

trading capacity• Balancing session

Calculation of the quantities of gas to be allocated to the

users of the transportation

As an example:

• Provisional Allocation and Statement

• Final Allocation and Statement

• Adjustment session• Default service• Temporary Supplier

Contracting of the transportation capacity on National and Regional network. Verification and management access services

Dispatching and physical management of the transportation network; measurement of the volumes and the quality of the gas

The application solution (1/3)

• The decision-making process relative to the application solution to be created has gone through:

• a software selection of the solutions available on the market

• a verification of the functional coverage offered relative to the distinctive features of the Italian

market

• a verification of the constraints imposed by the various packages

• a comparison with the implementation choices made by other European Transporters, who

have turned to custom applications to meet their needs

• The new application solution identified anticipates the realisation of a custom application based

on the latest technologies.
