ANNEXURE 13

Calculation of System Wide Heating Value

1 Introduction

2 Calculation of System Wide Heating Value

Gas Network Code: Oct 2019 1


1 Introduction

1.1 This Annexure 13 sets out the method by which the System Wide Heating Value referred to in
paragraph 5.4.2 of Section K is to be calculated.

2 Calculation of System Wide Heating Value

2.1 If the Transporter is able to ascertain the source and proportion of gas being supplied to the
Registered Shipper using network flow analysis, the applicable System Wide Heating Value shall
be derived based on the results of the network flow analysis and the gas chromatograph
reading(s) obtained from the relevant Transmission Network Injection Point(s) for the relevant
Balancing Period.

2.2 In all other cases, the System Wide Heating Value Calculation shall be calculated by the
Transporter in accordance with the following formula:

where :

SWHV is the System Wide Heating Value

HVIndividual is the heating value (expressed in Btu/scf) recorded by each BPRM Meter
Installation at the Transmission Network Injection Points in respect of which
the Transporter has a Valid Meter Reading for the relevant Balancing Period;

Vindividual is the volume (expressed in scf) by each BPRM Meter Installation at the
relevant Transmission Network Injection Point in respect of which the
Transporter has a Valid Meter Reading for the relevant Balancing Period;

n is the number of BPRM Meter Installations at Transmission Network Injection


Points in respect of which the Transporter has a Valid Meter Reading for the
relevant Balancing Period.
