Title: Gas supplies of interstate natural gas pipeline companies - 1980

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5300481

This report on the gas supplies of interstate natural gas pipeline companies provides a statistical summary of the year-end 1980 total reserves and deliverability capabilities of the interstate pipeline companies developed from the FPC Form 15, Annual Report of Gas Supply. The report is based on data from Form 15 reports filed by the 92 pipeline companies required to report on their gas supplies in 1980. The data on dedicated in-the-ground gas reserves (company-owned and/or purchased from independent producers) are from reports filed by 64 of these companies. The remaining 28 companies purchase all their gas supply from other pipeline companies who are respondents or from foreign suppliers. The gas supplies of interstate pipeline companies consist of the certificated, dedicated, recoverable, salable natural gas available from the domestic in-the-ground reserves, gas purchase contracts with other interstate pipeline companies, imported gas and synthetic natural gas (SNG). The domestic in-the-ground reserves include (1) company-owned reserves, (2) reserves dedicated or warranted under contracts with independent producers, and (3) supplemental or short-term supplies purchased from independent producers and intrastate pipeline companies. The purpose of this report is to provide information to the FERC, to other regulatory agencies, to the public and to fulfill the data collection responsibilities of the EIA.
