Gemini System: Update for Shippers Friday 25 July 2008 – 15:00

Further to the 14:00 update we can confirm that the restoration of Gemini system processing has already commenced. This will become visible to shippers as the 13:00 d & D-1 LDZ forecasts are attributed to NDM nominations around 15:00. At around 15:15 automatic scheduling of gas flow nominations and NBP trades will recommence. The 16:00hrs D demand attribution is also planned to occur at its normal timeslot. It is envisaged the first capacity auctions will commence at 16:00 but a further update will follow by 15:15hrs confirming this and the course of action required of shippers.
