Although the total number of entities (481) participating in buying released capacity shows a
slight decline from 2012, the nearly 27 Bcf/day, traded on a daily equivalent basis through September 2013 represents a nearly 10% increase from the 24.5 Bcf/d traded over the same period in 2012.

Number 1 Tenaska traded 203% more volume than second place Sequent. Taken together, the two firms accounted for just over 20% of all Daily Equivalent traded capacity and roughly 5% of the over 32,400 trades occurring in the first nine months of the year. “In 2013 we saw two key capacity trading trends,” said Greg Lander, Capacity Center President “First, we saw the continuing growth in capacity trading volume levels on a year-over-year basis. The second trend indicates a huge change in the firms occupying the 5th through 11th spots.
