How to Book Capacity with TTPC?

Overview

You can book First-Come-First-Served (FCFS) capacity from Trans Tunisian Pipeline Company S.p.A. (TTPC) on PRISMA. TTPC offers its capacity through Direct FCFS: PRISMA checks the available capacity directly and shows you an offer before you confirm the booking. You book TTPC capacity on the same FCFS Booking page as capacity from other Transmission System Operators (TSOs).

TTPC capacity at Oued Safsaf - Mazara del Vallo is offered together with Transmed S.p.A. as the peer TSO. For that reason, you accept the General Terms and Conditions (GTCs) of both operators when you book.

For further information on Direct FCFS in general, please consult: How to Book Direct FCFS Capacity?

Before You Start

You need an active assignment to both TTPC and Transmed S.p.A., and your user needs permission to make booking requests. If either is missing, PRISMA shows a message on the booking form and you can't continue.

For further information, please consult: How to View Your Assignments to Operators?
