Update on PRISMA auction Q3 ‘22 - credit limits

4 May 2022

BBLC offers its standard quarterly capacity products via the auction mechanism on PRISMA, which has started May 2nd for upcoming product period Q3 2022. There could arise an aggregated demand across BBLC network users for firm reverse flow capacity, which is greater than the capacity that BBLC offers.

Currently this auction faces significant surcharges, which possibly exceeds the credit limits of shippers involved in this auction. BBLC wishes to bring this matter to your attention: please be aware of your current credit limit at BBLC and check if this is still sufficient. See our credit protocol for more details, Exhibit B to the general terms and conditions.

In case of any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us: [email protected].
