Service

European gas transport. Not just for the big players.

Cross-border gas shipping is a business for large energy traders: admissions in every country, high collateral, dedicated dispatching teams. With bikosigma as your gas shipping partner, smaller biomethane portfolios move their gas at the same level — capacity, nomination and shipping in one hand.

What matters

Cross-border gas transport has high barriers to entry.

  1. Shipper status requires a demanding admission and high collateral in every country. For smaller portfolios this rarely pays off.
    Our pooling opens up the European gas market to smaller portfolios too, without their own admission.
  2. Capacity bookings run through different platforms, processes and deadlines per market area.
    Capacity booking on the relevant platforms, with an eye on term and price.
  3. Nominations and renominations have to match daily and across market areas.
    Nomination and renomination as a daily routine, not an exception.
  4. Unused or badly sized capacity costs money immediately.
    Capacity portfolio and transport demand reconciled continuously.
