Bottleneck analysis of the gas transmission network using ProGasNet simulator

cover
The overall aim of the ProGasNet (Probabilistic Gas Network) simulator project is to develop a natural gas transmission network probabilistic model capable to analyse reliability, resilience and security of supply aspects under normal or extreme load situations. This paper presents bottleneck analysis using ProGasNet of a regional natural gas transmission network and proposes not only bottleneck identification methodology, but also determines missing capacity in the congested area. The results indicate that connection 17-34-18 is a bidirectional bottleneck in the network when one out of two largest gas sources is lost. This helps network operators and policy decision makers to propose network development plans.
