- subject : project hurricane / bridgeline status
- here is a quick status and list of to do ' s related to setting up the new j . v .
- between enron & texaco which will be combining the lrc and bridgeline
- pipeline systems :
- summary : the lrc & bridgeline pipeline systems will be combined under the
- name of bridgeline llc . ownership in the jv will be split 60 % texaco & 40 %
- enron . bridgeline gas marketing llc will be the entity that will be trading
- on the pipelines under the new j . v . contracts and service agreements are in
- the process of being drafted .
- enron will be providing the trading and commercial operations systems to
- support this j . v . texaco will be providing the scada system . i understand
- that accounting is still being discussed . the trading , risk , & perhaps
- scheduling personnel for this jv will be initially relocated to the 21 st
- floor of the enron building and will eventually move to probably the 3 allen
- center once a more permanent spot can be built out . trading for the new jv
- will start in early february for march production .
- to do ' s :
- accounting : i ' ve asked jim coffey to set up two work orders to capture it
- transition and ongoing costs . texaco is also trying to set up a meeting next
- monday to step through the accounting flow so that we are all on the same
- page and make sure there is nothing that will fall through the cracks .
- pc ' s : jim fussell is in the process of ordering the pc ' s for this jv at my
- request . i will need the work order numbers to track these costs .
- networks : i ' m coordinating with arshak and his team to make sure that the
- voice and data networks are in place for eb 21 . once the more permanent spot
- is nailed down we will then need to do the same for that location . a
- combination of trader phones , lucent phones , stenfons and amtels have been
- requested .
- location on eb 21 : i ' m waiting on a call back from chris larson from
- facilities to find out what locations on 21 will be assigned to the new jv .
- currently half of the floor is empty but they are set up with high wall
- cubes . there may need to be some build out for the traders to low wall
- cubes . we can ' t set up the pc ' s , phones , amtels , etc until this is done .
- data conversion : i have requested from texaco the contract , deal and
- meter / facility information we will need to set up in our systems to begin
- trading for march production . it may be possible to get an electronic dump
- of this data from texaco if enron defines the data fields that we will need .
- we also need to set up the trading entities and portfolios . i will also need
- to know who will need to have access to this data so that we can set up the
- system security . i have received the names of the traders but i don ' t know
- who else will need access .
- interface between enron ' s unify pop ' s application and bridgeline ' s scada
- application : i ' ve asked dave nommensen from enron to get with carryn wright
- from texaco to begin the process of defining the interface between the two
- applications and estimate the time to build and implement the interface .
- there will also need to be a transition plan put in place where lrc ' s
- rtu ' s / efm is redirected to the bridgeline scada system . in the meantime
- there will be two scada systems and perhaps two gas controls until everything
- is merged into one . this will probably mean some manual interfaces between
- pop ' s and scada for confirmed noms and efm volumes until the transition is
- complete .
- scada communications : currently the lrc rtu ' s / efm communicate back to
- enron ' s scada system via leased lines . bridgelines rtu ' s communicate back to
- them via a microwave system . the new jv could save on communications costs
- by switching lrc ' s rtu communication to the microwave . perhaps this is best
- done as a part of the scada transition .
- accounting data needed by texaco for royalty purposes : this data needs to be
- better defined . i will follow up with john ledoux from texaco to get this
- process started .
- hourly volumes : bridgeline currently has one utility customer who may be
- billed on an hourly basis depending on the amount of swing . we need to talk
- through this process to see what enhancements may be needed . at least
- initially there will need to be some manual processes in place to support the
- billing for this one customer .
- please let me know if you ' d like to meet on any of these topics . i can have
- my assistant set up the meeting if needed . in the mean time i can be reached
- at 713 - 853 - 6858 . thanks ! - tommy
