Bid Evaluation

Upon completion of this open season, all remaining bids will be considered binding until a successful bid(s) has been awarded. All final bids received during the open season will be evaluated on a net present value ("NPV") per unit of dekatherm ("Dth") basis using the factors below.
NPV= En [R*(1 / (1+i)^n)]/Dth
En = Summation of months 1 through n (Sigma)
n = Term in months
Dth = Quantity bid
R = Incremental monthly revenue of all services/paths in bid
i = Monthly Discount Factor (current FERC quarterly rate, which can be found at: https://www.ferc.gov/interest-calculation-rates-and-methodology
Any award of capacity is subject to the requirements for service to commence as set forth in ANR's Tariff, including satisfaction of ANR's creditworthiness requirements. ANR reserves the right to reject any bid that exceeds the bidder's qualified level of creditworthiness. Potential bidders are encouraged to contact the credit analyst listed below prior to bid submittal to determine whether sufficient credit has been established for their bid. In the event there is more than one best bid and requests for service exceed available capacity offered in this open season, capacity will be allocated on a pro rata basis. If the best bid or bids are not awarded the entire volume of MDQ offered in the open season, the remaining capacity will be awarded to the remaining unrejected bid(s) that meet the conditions of this open season and provide the next highest NPV/Dth. This process will be repeated until either there are no more unrejected bids or the entire volume of MDQ has been awarded. If any or all the above available capacity remains unsold after this bid period, this posting also serves as notice that such capacity will continue to be awarded on a first-come first-served basis upon receipt of a bid that ANR deems acceptable. Parties interested in this capacity may, but shall not be required to, specify a minimum acceptable prorated MDQ volume to apply in the event of allocation.
Parties interested in this capacity should submit a binding bid via email by sending the attached bid form(s) to ANRmarketing@TCenergy.com.
