Back to Monthly Data Entry and Balance Screens
GGS (Gas Gathering System) Balance is where monthly data for the Gas Gathering System is entered including Receipts, Consumption, and Dispositions. There is a Balance area at the top of the screen that shows Receipts, Consumption, and Dispositions (disposition totals). The Receipts, Consumption and Dispositions sections can be opened and closed. Receipts and dispositions can be added on this screen, and previous months' entries will be brought forward. Upon Save, the screen will calculate and balance the gathering system forcing a metering difference (if necessary).
For Gas Flow gathering systems, the Gas Flow Balance button will be visible and enabled. Clicking this button will launch the Gas Flow Balance screen directly without having to back to the Explorer menu.
The Balance area shows Receipts, Dispositions, Consumption and Metering Difference totals.
When the gathering system is not balanced, Not Balanced is displayed above the Production Date with a Balance Check link next to it.
When the link is selected, all GGS balance validations are executed again, and a window is displayed with the Balance Check Details.
A green checkmark is shown beside validations that are successful.
A red X is shown beside validations that failed.
A simple box with a (-) is shown beside validations that were not run due to a previous validation failing.
These visual indicators and associated descriptions should provide additional help to identify why the GGS is not balanced.
GGS Production Validation - Displays all validations performed related to the GGS in general.
GGS Gas Flow Production Validation - This section appears if the GGS is attached to a gas flow Control Group, and it displays all the gas flow validations performed.
The batteries in the schematic that deliver to this GGS will appear in the Receipts section with the volume that was sent. A receipt for fuel can be entered.
