A customer concept is used as the basis for creating an application for managing gas supply contracts between the producer country and the consumer country. Various specialist publications provide information about future supply contracts, with differing levels of detail. This information is relevant to forecasting consumption by consumer countries and the producer’s activities. Special attention is given here to the increasing role of short-term LNG or spot market activities instead of long-term pipeline contracts.

The customer’s aim is to take sole responsibility for maintaining and further developing the application. In addition to the actual implementation, one fundamental component is shaped by the joint creation of workshops in both analytical and technological form.
