Behind this dataset
Same schema. As many rows as you need.
These 130 rows came out of a blueprint — 19 columns with generation rules behind each one. Open it in Data Factory to retune a column, add your own, wire in foreign keys, and run it at the size you actually need.
- Gas day (9:30am-9:30am CCT) and pipeline operator (e.g., Texas Eastern, ANR)
- Receipt point: interstate pipeline interconnect or storage facility
- Delivery point: power plant, city gate, or LDC interconnect
- Volume in MMBtu (million British thermal units) or Mcf (thousand cubic feet)
- Heating value (Btu/scf), typically 1,000-1,050 Btu/scf
- Firm vs. interruptible transportation contracts
- Pipeline capacity constraints and operational flow orders (OFOs)
- Imbalance charges for over/under deliveries
