Abstract
In accordance with the reform policy of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, open access to natural gas pipeline networks should allow large customers an opportunity to compete for cost-effective natural gas supplies. The competitive criterion is that all potential customers have equivalent access at the market clearing price to any building blocks in natural gas transportation service. Access to firm transportation capacity rights, defined as reliability priority blocks at critical bottlenecks, is a workable mechanism for planning and managing capacity allocations on the pipeline network. A concurrent auction optimization model provides an allocation of and prices for capacity rights for a given period, with allocations reflecting the willingness to pay.
