End User — Location Detail

Every figure on these pages is a posted scheduled quantity — the volume a pipeline published at a named meter, on a named cycle, added up. Not measured flow, not a model: what the pipeline posted. Nothing is scaled to a national total (LNG Canada, a labeled exception, is derived).

For a trader the question is rarely “what is U.S. power burn today?” It is “what changed since yesterday, where, and is it real?” Postings answer all three better than a scaled-up estimate: the figure is available as each cycle closes, at the point where the gas moved, with the filing to prove it. Our own tests showed that scaling our data up to match a national estimate produced a number no better than the estimate, published later — so we stopped.

We cover the interstate system, not the whole country. Texas intrastate pipelines, customers behind LDC citygates and the California utilities don’t post the same way, so those flows are not in our totals yet. We are adding additional meters and pipelines every week, each validated before it counts, so coverage keeps rising. What we won’t do is invent the rest.
