Abstract: The 1980s have seen a renewed interest in using network modeling to solve gas distribution engineering and operating problems. Many smaller companies, which have in the past performed little or no organized system analysis, are now embarking on substantial modeling projects. This is, in part, attributable to the increasing cost of gas and facilities construction, ihe increasing competition for sales in the energy market, and Ihe ever increasing availabiUty of low cost, high powered digital computing hardware. The gas utility engineers and managers at these companies must today understand how to integrate the various components of the gas network modeling into a system that wiil provide the desired solutions to engineering problems. This paper presents some of the critical success factors of gas network modeling and a set of overall guidelines for its implementation and ongoing management. The ideas presented herein are based on observations that have been made during the implementation of complete gas network modehng systems for a number of small and medium sized distribution companies over the past several years.
