ACTIVITIES IMPLEMENTED JOINTLY (AIJ)
ACTIVITIES IMPLEMENTED JOINTLY UNDER THE PILOT PHASE The uniform reporting format contained below is to be used in reporting on activities implemented jointly under the pilot phase. It is noted that the reporting should be consistent with decision 5/CP.1 and 8/CP.2 (reproduced in annexes I and II to this reporting format). The SBSTA notes that the uniform reporting format could possibly require revision in the light of experience gained and methodological work conducted under the pilot phase.
A. Description of project
A. 1) Title of project: Modelling and optimization of grid operation of the gas transportation system
"Ushgorod Corridor" of Wolgotransgas (Gazprom) A. 2) Participants/actors: Please fill in one table for each participant/actor. For individuals fill in as from item AFunction within activity".
a) Organization includes: institutions, ministries, companies, non-governmental organizations, etc. involved in the
activity, i.e. research institutes associated with the project, auditors, government agency closely following the
activity.
A. 3) Activity:
a) For example, using Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) classification: energy efficiency; renewable energy; fuel switching; forest preservation, restoration or reforestation; afforestation; fugitive gas capture; industrial processes; solvents; agriculture; waste disposal or bunker fuels. b) Circle the appropriate option. c) Methodological work will be required to define lifetime of activities.
d) Methodological work will be required to determine for each type of activity what the minimum data requirements
are. A. 4) Cost (to the extent possible)(approx.):
Describe briefly how costs are determined:
The total investment costs will be approx. 700 000 US$.
A. 5) Mutually agreed assessment procedures:
a) Please ensure that detailed contact information for all organizations mentioned is reported under
section A.2 above.
B. Governmental acceptance, approval or endorsement
Bearing in mind that all activities implemented jointly under this pilot phase require prior acceptance, approval
or endorsement by the Governments of the Parties participating in these activities, which shall be shown as
follows:
(a) In the case of joint reporting, the report is submitted by the designated national authority of one
participating Party with the concurrence of all other participating Parties as evidenced by attached letters issued
by the relevant national authorities;
(b) In the case of separate reporting, the reports are submitted separately by the designated national authority of
each and every participating Party. Information will only be compiled once reports have been received from all
participating Parties.
B. 1) For the activity:
* First report and joint reporting: please add copies of letters of endorsement by each designated national
authority of Parties involved in the activity.
* Subsequent reports: Activity was: _ suspended _ terminated earlier
Describe:
B. 2) This report is a joint report: _Yes, forward copy of agreement/endorsement by the designated national authorities involved
_ No
B. 3) General short comment by the government(s) if applicable:
C. Compatibility with and supportiveness of national economic development and socioSeconomic and environment
priorities and strategies
D. Benefits derived from the activities implemented jointly project
Whenever possible, quantitative information should be provided. Failing that, a qualitative description should be
given. If quantitative information becomes available, it could be submitted using the update(s). (If the amount of
quantative information is too large, the source could be indicated.)
E. Calculation of the contribution of activities implemented jointly projects that bring about real, measurable
and long-term environmental benefits related to the mitigation of climate change that would not have occurred in
the absence of such activities E. 1) Estimated emissions without the activity (project baseline):
Description of the baseline or reference scenario, including methodologies applied: To drive the above mentioned
compressor systems, about 3 bill. m³ of natural gas are needed every year. Combustion of 1 m³ of gas
results in roughly 2 kg of CO2 emissions. E. 2) Estimated emissions with the activity:
Description of the scenario, including methodologies applied: Optimization results in reduced fuel gas consumption and lower greenhouse gas emissions. In addition, decreasing compressor operating hours leads to less maintenance work and extended service life.
The aim is to optimize compressor unit use with an appropriate allocation of flows to the parallel lines in the
Uzhgorod corridor. Calculations have shown that on avarage, a total of some 2,5% or 75 mill. m³ of fuel gas
can be saved annually. The "SIMONE" software program is intended to make full use of this realistic
potential. This should be the minimum of reduction.
The results of the optimization of the transportation operating system of Wolgotransgas can be summarised as
follows:
Fill in the following tables as applicable:
E.2.1) Summary table: Projected emission reductions (tonnes) (approx):
a) Includes indirect GHG leakages.
* Because of training and adaption we expect in 1998 halve of the reduction potential and from 1999 full emission
reduction. E.2.2) Summary table: Actual emission reductions:
a) Includes indirect GHG leakages.
F. Bearing in mind that the financing of activities implemented jointly shall be additional to financial
obligations of Parties included in Annex II to the Convention within the framework of the financial mechanism as
well as to current official development assistance flows, please indicate
G. Contribution to capacity building, transfer of environmentally sound technologies and know-how to other
Parties, particularly developing country Parties, to enable them to implement the provisions of the Convention. In
this process, the developed country Parties shall support the development and enhancement of endogenous capacities
and technologies of developing country Parties
Describe briefly the transfer of environmenally sound technology and know-how including where appropriate the type
of technology, terms, education, capactity building etc. Know how transfer by involvement of All-Russian Scientific-Research Institute of Natural Gases and Gas Technologies (VNIIGAZ) for the entire duration of the pilot project. After implementation and training at Volgotransgaz the russian partner with assistence of Ruhrgas is enabled to apply this software package to other transportation companies of Gazprom.
H. Additional comments, if any, including any practical experience gained or technical difficulties, effects,
impacts or other obstacles encountered
Fill in as appropriate:
H. 1) Any practical experience gained: The software has been developed and implemented at the Ruhrgas
Dispatching system for some years.
H. 2) Technical difficulties: do not exist.
H. 3) negative impacts and/or effects encountered: do not exist.
Whenever possible, quantitative information should be provided. Failing that, a qualitative description should be
given. If quantitative information becomes available, it could be submitted using the update(s). (If the amount of
quantative information is too large, the source could be indicated.)
H. 4) Other obstacles encountered: unknown H. 5) Other: |
