Ecogas
Quote from: Mr. Ernesto Rojas, Chief of Gas Control

"We were looking for a powerful system capable of monitoring and evaluating the performance of our network, as well as, the other lines that are connected to it. Our network is the main bone of the gas transportation system in Colombia, what happen in other pipelines connected to our network affects our capacity to response to our customer that is why we need a reliable solution to analyze the current state of the network and to assist us in being prepared for any future critical situation. Energy Solutions was the right choice for our needs! We are very please with Energy Solutions and the way the first phase of the project was implemented. The technical group was extremely professional and they really were very committed to deliver a state-of-the-art solution." Concerning the second phase of the project, Mr. Rojas added, "With the current events in our country, the contingency plans are first priority, therefore the Predictive Modeling Applications will provide the assistance that our operators need to face critical situations and make the right decisions in advance."

Florida Gas Transmission Company
FGT System
Quote from: Michael Bryant, Manager of Gas Control and Scheduling

"…..As a result of using the Energy Solutions modelling software, Florida Gas has achieved fuel savings of approximately $3.5 million in 1998 and $5.5 million in 1999. Also - and perhaps more significantly - the sustained throughput has increased by 3.4% from 1996 to 1998. Energy Solutions International modelling software and their professional staff has helped Florida Gas greatly exceed every goal that we initially set out to achieve with our real-time modelling project. I am sure that as Florida Gas goes through our upcoming market expansions that our Energy Solutions model will continue to be an essential tool in our effort to make the smartest business and operational decisions."
