Abstract:

In June 1978, TERA, Inc. was awarded a contract by the U.S. Deaprtment of Energy, Office of Policy and Evaluation, to do a study of the National Energy Transportation System (NETS). This study was part of a larger effort sponsored by a joint task force consisting of the Departments of Energy (DOE) and Transportation (DOT) to identify potential bottlenecks in the U.S. energy transportation system in the period 1985 to 1995. TERA's role in this study was specified to be the development and implementation of a methodology to disaggregate national energy supply and demand scenarios provided by DOE for 1985, 1990, and 1995 into detailed supply and demand forecasts at the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA) regional level. In addition, TERA was to be responsible for the development and implementation of a rational methodology for the development and implementation of a rational methodology for estimating interregional flows of energy materials from each BEA producing region to each BEA consuming region in the country. The energy commodities included in the NETS study were coal, crude oil, refined oil products, and natural gas. This paper describes the results of that study in the area of natural gas. (Author)
