WHITE PAPER ON ENERGY POLICY (December 1998)
• “Government will promote competition in the transport of liquid fuels.”
• “The petroleum regulatory regime will inhibit monopolistic abuse of pipelines and storage facilities. Pipelines will be required to provide non-discriminatory open access to uncommitted capacity, transparency of tariffs, and disclosure of cost and pricing information to a suitable authority.”

NON-COMPETITIVE SEGMENTS
• Price control Natural monopoly Efficiency ( by pricing )
• Rate of return Book value versus replacement value
• Price cap e.g.ArgentinaAdjusted for inflation 6 monthlyReviewed every 5 years

COMMON CARRIERS
• A pipeline company obliged by law to provide service to all interested parties without discrimination to the limit of the pipeline’s capacity. Once the pipeline’s capacity is reached the service must be offered to all shippers in proportion to the amounts tendered for shipment.

OVER-BOOKING!
• In Canada the 3 700 km Inter-provincial Pipeline (IPL) carries two thirds of western Canada’s oil production to eastern Canada
• April 1995 shippers’ nominations were twice the oil production of western Canada
• Penalties of $2.70/barrel imposed• Penalty funds used to lower overall tariffs,
thus rewarding responsible nominators
