Corporate Asset Planning

The Corporate Asset Planning unit is responsible for the optimal implementation and planning of investment projects and large-scale replacement projects relating to Gasunie's gas transport network in the Netherlands and Germany. Determination of the available transport capacity and development of the gas transport network are carried out in a non-discriminatory and transparent manner.

The unit is subdivided into three departments:

The task of the Infrastructure Configuration department is to optimise the Gasunie network so that it can sell the maximum amount of capacity. The department also puts together proposals for adjustments to the network (‘business cases’) so that the market demand for transport can be processed in the most efficient manner and the end user can be provided with security of transport. Finally, the department carries out infrastructure policy studies.

The Prognoses and Reporting department is responsible for drawing up a long-term vision for infrastructure development, for developing and maintaining network simulation models and managing market modelling (prognoses and network configuration).

Where adaptations to the network configuration are desired, the System Design and Portfolio Management department is responsible for making the transition to a conceptual design with a set of functional requirements. The department also manages the portfolios for all investment projects in the gas transport network.
