New regulatory requirements caused drastic changes to LDC, pipelines, suppliers, customer agents, and transportation business practices, which drove the need for a central repository for all departments and teams of the natural gas life cycle, inclusive of tracking gas procurement, scheduling, release management, storage, and transportation billing.
ENSYTE implemented a central hub for all day-to-day gas activities, removing the silo’d business groups, and transitioning all spreadsheets into GASTAR. The application manages all day-to-day gas activities and mission critical tasks, including storage management, rachets, gas procurement, nominations and scheduling, and robust security measures limiting read and write permissions to certain business groups. The application also provides integration capabilities to add new or import data from external systems.
“For over two decades, GASTAR has been a business-critical application for our company’s energy management activities of procurement, scheduling, release management, storage, contract management, measurements, customer billing, and supply accounting. The application and underlying data model has proven itself highly flexible for changing business events. The vendor has been responsive to address software issues in a timely manner and adapt system functionality for new opportunities.”
