FRC- Where did it start?

RMR – Retail Market Rules

– 26 July 2004 “Market Go-Live Day”

32. Error correction notice

56. Request for historical REMCo standing data

68. If new connection confirmation notice is not valid

175. Gate Point control systems

177. Calculation of heating degree day (SA only)

182. Users collectively to keep sub-network pressurised

260. Determine swing errors

343. Determinations which may be made

375. No liability for acting in reliance on data provided by others

401. Jurisdictional approval

Project Overview• What is FRC and what is FRCT?

– FRC• De-regulation of the SA/WA gas industry

• Multiple retailers (like telecoms, ISPs etc)

• Set of Rules to operate the market

– FRCT• Market requirements (settlement, swing gas, gate point metering

data, interval data)

– RTUs used to collate and send data over telemetry

– Daily bill with hourly consumption based on a few telemetry readings

– RMR Prescribed Reports to Users (Retailers) and REMCo

Scope


Scope• Hardware

– Field devices (45 new RTUs, 2 new MTUs, integration of 143 existing sites through current system (Citect, MTU, comms))

– IT System (7 new servers, 3 new workstations, 3 standby laptops)– FTP server (sending and receiving reports to REMCo)

• Infrastructure– Communications (new GPRS Telstra communications for RTUs)– Power supply (new 30 kVA Generator, 15 kVA UPS at Brompton)– Accommodation (GC room upgrade, power, network, desks for 4 people)

• Software– SCADA (CITECT)– Protocol interface (IOServer OPC)– Calculation, estimation, substitution, reconciliation engine (OSI PI)– Reporting (Crystal Enterprise / Crystal Reports, Oracle)

• Diagrammatically, can be shown as..

Issues


Issues

• Go Live Day is firm

• Constantly changing rules

– Moving target

• Business not fully comprehending significance of scope

• Market not knowing what they wanted

• …Result…


Issues

• Results..

– Interim solution• Change management

• Ongoing PM

• Manual workarounds


PI Saved The Day

• DataLink Excel sheet:– Fast Prototyping tool

– Easily understood by Origin’s BA’s

– One master sheet moved around• BSVCS (Buffy’s Stake Version

Control System)

– BA’s could understand PI DB

– ACE could gradually replace
