July Insights

Since the beginning of March, Shipper Admins have been managing their users on the User Management table. On that page, they can edit their users' details, upgrade them to admin, deactivate them and also add new users.

We will soon add two new features: (1) admin downgrade and (2) temporary deactivation.

Soon, admins will also able to downgrade admins to regular users, if they are no longer to act in that capacity. This functionality will also allow admins to downgrade themselves, provided there's at least one other user fulfilling that role.

Additionally, admins will be able to permanently delete or temporarily deactivatecompany users. Note the slight terminological tweak. To delete a user will mean to permanently exclude them from your company roster: their assignments to operators and data will vanish from your company account.

In contrast, to deactivate a user will mean to temporarily switch off their account: their assignments will remain active and the admin can reactivate their account whenever they please. Every Admin will see both a "Delete" and a "Deactivate" button on the user's details pages.

Admins will also be able to delete other admin accounts as well as their own account, provided another admin exists.

We are happy to share that the LNG Operator Deutsche Energy Terminal GmbH (DET) is joining the PRISMA Platform.

DET is a fully federally owned company that operates four LNG terminals on the North Sea Coast. The first auction is expected to take place in October 2023.

Before they begin to market their products, DET is giving potential users an opportunity to outline their regasification requirements by August 11, 2023 through a market survey.

We strongly encourage all market players who are interested to fill out the questionnaire below. Your participation is highly valued and greatly appreciated!

We are pleased to announce the results of the second tender round on AggregateEU. The total aggregated demand approached 16 bcm, surpassing the first round by over 4 billion cubic meters.

Reliable international suppliers have submitted a total gas volume of 15.19 billion cubic meters in response to that demand, out of which 11.98 bcm have been successfully matched.

Once again, it is necessary to remember that the process of contract negotiation and conclusion will be independently handled outside of AggregateEU, with no involvement from the European Commission or PRISMA.

As our platform has grown, we decided to improve our menu design to provide a more elegant and streamlined user experience for you.

The addition of new services is constrained by the horizontal menu layout, which can easily become cluttered. Therefore, we have decided to transition from a horizontal to a vertical menu in line with the state-of-the-art design vision of our platform software.

To ensure a successful transition, we would like to collaborate closely with you. Throughout our research phase, we will invite you to review prototypes and participate in interviews and tests. Your support in this process is greatly appreciated.

On PRISMA, you can select any number of favorite network points to enable you to find auctions, trade offers and FCFS options more easily. These network points will appear on your dashboard once you log in. You will see them by default on the Network Point Overview. However, if you don't use the Favorite Network Point functionality at all, you will continue to see a list with all available Network Points, as usual.  

Our UX team is currently looking to understand which words operators use in different contexts. To do that, they have prepared a short 3-minute survey for you to fill out, which is linked below. We thank you in advance for your valuable contribution.
