Created “Enron Geographic Services (EGS),” an internal GIS consulting group, that aided all Enron businesses (EES, EWS, EBS, ETS) with GIS system/application solutions and geographic data access. EGS greatly increased group’s exposure to key commodity specific GIS data that they could use in analysis of pending and existing deals.Created a reliable and renewable source of funding for our GIS group through yearly contacts for data supports and web based mapping needs with other groupsIncreased other groups exposure to key commodity specific GIS data stored in ArcSDE to use for spatial analysis of pending and existing dealsEliminated the need for groups to secure third party GIS consultantsImplemented a corporate wide enterprise GIS solutionAnalyzed long-term (1 year +) key fundamentals of the natural gas markets in North America, and forecasted their effect on the future of power and gas markets in North America. That information was then incorporated into our GIS database (ArcSDE) for further geospatial analysis to aid in deal facilitation, and direct trader support of future key fundamentals.Tracked proposed and existing: natural gas fired generation, pipeline expansions, storage facilitiesAnalyzed new natural gas well-head production (off-shore and on-shore)Evaluated proposed LNG terminals and the effects on North America gas marketsProvided energy related GIS and mapping support for natural gas and power Trading and Origination desks within Enron North America.Developed Stand alone (Map Objects) and web based (ArcIMS) geographic applications used in trader and logistic support including:Real-time Scheduled Quantity and available Capacity for pipelinesReal-time weather (Nexrad radar, HDD/CDD Contours, Max/Min temp)Daily contour map reports of pricing for natural gas and power prices, similar to weather contour maps
