Subject: correlation matrix reduction zhiyang , got your message . as we discussed , the best way to breakdown the big correlation matrix between different location indices is through " cluster analysis " . the idea is to select major hubs and the " satellite " markets . by establish the correlation between the hubs and correlation between the satellites and the hubs , the big matrix can be significantly reduced . then the traders only need to input the correlations between the hubs . this technique has been applied in our value at risk system . you may talk to tanya to find out the details . zimin ps : the wsprd code you requested . | 0 |

Subject: derivative classes i discovered that clewlow and strickland have at least two books , " implementing derivative models , " and " exotic options . " i gather that " exotic options " is the one you intend to use in your class , correct ? by the way , i queried participants in my class , and i heard that the case study approach we occaisionally used was appreciated by several . the var class i taught was from jorian ' s book , which has no exercises and which assumes a particular background in finance and statistics . i created a problem ( not exactly a case study ) that required participant to learn some statistics and try some different approaches . from this , participants got a better idea of why one bothers with certain issues . some liked the " real world " flavor of this kind of approach . ( without the case approach , you could provide good counterexampes as a partial remedy . ) best regards and season ' s greetings , michael | 0 |

Subject: storage model change : commodity delta dear all , i change the storage model output to its total value versus the unit value before . the total value refers to the total present value of the storage capacity at given status ( initial conditions ) . the way i calculate the unit value is ( total pv - s * capacity taken ) / total capacity which could suffer some negative numbers since s , the spot price could be very high . the correct way is to define the s as the average injection gas price , but this would be troublesome to compute . by switching to total pv , the delta can be interpreted as total commodity delta for the hedge . actually , duffie also suggested using the total pv as the output in his audit review . i have attached the xll model below . zimin | 0 |

Subject: lng by rail vince , i was thinking about the type of things you could be talking to jeff shankman about , in the dabhol lng context . it occurred to me that one way to collect on regas charges , and still find alternate cutomers for gas is through the railways . some time back , i had looked into the possiblility of transporting lng by train . apparently , technology exists wherein lng can be put into cryogenic containers that can be trucked as well as the same containers being loaded from trucks to train bogies . i believe this maybe a way to earn some monies with lng by developing just such a market in india for commercial customers . it is pertinent to note that the konkan rail line is just about 1 hr . 45 minutes from the dabhol plant . trucks from dabhol could carry lng to the rail line at guhagar from where it could travel up and down the west coast of india . if we target end - consumers directly , we could easily sell at retail type prices , and build in a large margin , even if the volumes disposed are relatively smaller . ( the alternative fuel for most of these establishments is diesel or naphtha which is highly priced , and mostly trucked along roads , increasing costs ) . the end aim is to keep income targets in india , so that the analysts do not have a field day with the stock . hence keeping activity up in india , and showing that solutions exist , will keep stock price buoyed . we could explore this idea if it appeals ! regards , sandeep . | 0 |

Subject: petrochem desk i had a chance to speak with christian lebroc this morning with regard to curve building for petrochemicals . as it turns out , christian left rac in april and joined the petrochem desk as a trader . previous efforts at construction of a forward curve by the group have focused on intuition or swags . unfortunately , the group had a rough p & l year with at least some of the blame directed toward the forward curve or lack thereof . when asked about the fundamentals group , christian indicated that they ' d only been around about 3 - 4 months and are not yet well - suited to curve building . john nowlan is indeed the head of the group . from a timing perspective , i told christian that it would probably take at least 6 - 8 weeks to develop a curve , especially considering the need to understand the key market drivers / fundamentals . as was suggested yesterday during our meeting , a strong relationship between petrochemicals and a nymex component ( e . g . , crude oil ) would provide a great beginning point - - we could then potentially strengthen / augment this relationship with other key factors ( e . g . , supply and demand terms ) borne out of our market research . nelson | 0 |

Subject: capital book to further the process of reaching the stated objectives of increasing enron america ' s velocity of capital and associated return on invested capital , we have decided to create a capital book . the capital book will have no profit target associated with it and will be managed by joe deffner . the purpose of creating this book is to ensure that all transactions within enron americas , with any form of capital requirement , are structured correctly and are allocated the appropriate cost of capital charge . the previous numbers used in the business plans at the beginning of this year will remain for all transactions in place and where we hold assets . therefore , on any assets currently held within each business area , the capital charge will remain at 15 % . internal ownership of these assets will be maintained by the originating business unit subject to the internal ownership policy outlined below . the cost of capital associated with all transactions in enron americas will be set by joe . this process is separate and apart from the current rac process for transactions which will continue unchanged . capital investments on balance sheet will continue to accrue a capital charge at the previously established rate of 15 % . transactions which are structured off credit will receive a pure market pass through of the actually incurred cost of capital as opposed to the previous 15 % across the board charge . transactions which are structured off balance sheet , but on credit will be priced based upon the financial impact on enron america ' s overall credit capacity . on transactions that deploy capital through the trading books , the capital book will take a finance reserve on each transaction , similar to the way the credit group takes a credit reserve . this finance reserve will be used specifically to fund the capital required for the transaction . as noted above , the capital book will have no budget and will essentially charge out to the origination and trading groups at actual cost . by sending market - based capital pricing signals internally , enron america ' s sources of capital and liquidity should be better optimized across the organization . questions regarding the capital book can be addressed to : joe deffner 853 - 7117 alan quaintance 345 - 7731 | 0 |

Subject: re : cplex i agree . i ( or chonawee ) will go ahead and place the order for cplex . i think that this will provide us with a great set of tools . - samer pinnamaneni krishnarao @ ect 05 / 24 / 00 01 : 34 pm to : samer takriti / enron communications @ enron communications @ enron , tom halliburton / corp / enron @ enron cc : grant masson / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , chonawee supatgiat / corp / enron @ enron , vince j kaminski / hou / ect @ ect subject : re : cplex i talked to vince about the optimization software issue . vince said that if there are technical reasons for having two different packages and the benefits outweigh the costs of maintaining two licenses , we can go ahead and buy both . in my view , it is a great advantage to have both , as each has its own strengths relative to the other . we have spent some time trying to come up with one package that solves all of our problmes without success . there is no point is wasting more time on this effort . let ' s go ahead and purchase both . krishna . from : samer takriti @ enron communications on 05 / 24 / 2000 10 : 22 am to : tom halliburton / corp / enron @ enron cc : grant masson / hou / ect @ ect , pinnamaneni krishnarao / hou / ect @ ect , stinson gibner / hou / ect @ ect , chonawee supatgiat / corp / enron @ enron subject : re : cplex tom , vince prefers to have one software package ( if possible ) . it is my understanding that special ordered sets are recognized automatically ( internally ) by cplex . this seems to be the case for both cplex and osl according to ampl ' s web page and other references ( check lorderedsetsfeature ) . as a result , the cplex people feel that there is no need to provide the user with the tools to represent special - ordered sets in opl . as a matter of fact , the incapability of xpress to recognize them automatically concerns me . if you have special requirements , c code may be used to pass the information to the solver ( which is straight forward ; all of chonawee ' s testing was done this way ) . chonawee ' s benchmark shows a superior performance by cplex ( which you indicated yourself in an earlier message ) . if you feel that xpress is the only way to go , then feel free to purchase it ( the purchase order is on hold for the time being ) . however , we need to check with vince first . i strongly feel that we should have one solver in order to minimize cost and contractual headaches . let us try to get this issue resolved by this afternoon . thanks . - samer | 0 |

Subject: enterprise risk management dear vince , ? thanks for your call the other day regarding eprm ' s upcoming enterprise risk management conference . we seem to be making progress and are pulling together some interesting subjects for inclusion this year . i am currently at a stage where there are plenty of possible sessions and over the next week i will be able to decide of which will stay and which will go . ? i have attached a file that gives an indication of the topics that have been identified so far . although i have bullet points for the sessions i would first like to identify interested parties and then work with them to develop a session that reflects their particular expertise and experience . i also think that by continuously developing the points we can make greater allowances for continuity between each participant . ? based on our discussion i would be extremely interested in inviting you to lead a session on the main conference . you seemed to have an interesting view on operational risk and the particular challenges that are presented within the energy industry . this session will run on thursday , november 16 th . the title is reasonably broad at this stage and any suggestions are welcome . ? your overall views on the current conference content is also welcome and if you feel that another session is more suited to your work do not hesitate to contact me . i look forward to speaking with you soon . ? yours sincerely , ? paul bristow senior course and conference producer , energy & power risk management + 44 ( 0 ) 20 7484 9883 - maildoc . doc | 0 |

Subject: status vasant - i hope you had a wonderful vacation back home , and are rested and recovered from the long flight back . i wanted to give you an update of the eol project , the gas model , and of my intentions here at enron . software ( in compiled c on the unix platform ) has been developed and debugged to listen to the eol trades , process them , book them , and file them away . in addition , software has been developed and debugged to mark these to market on a continual basis , and to store the entirety of open positions on eol in a dynamic matrix facilitating analysis . it has yet to get back with me on how the software can be informed of those trades ultimately rejected for credit purposes . these data files are stored in a format for reading by excel or by sas , for which i have written the data step program and basic tabulation routines elucidating the structure of the data . i am in the process of documenting all of this for you . with regards the gas model and its slow performance on the compaq , dell has agreed to loan me one of their competing machines to the compaq , to see if the performance issue of the lp is related to the compaq . i have been researching this issue with it here and with compaq and dell . the new machine will be here any day now ( no financial obligation to anyone ) , and i will be able to immediately ascertain whether the problem the model is having is compaq - specific . i am also in the process of documenting the gas model for you . i ' ve tried to do my best for you , vasant , but i have been frustrated by not only the death of my mother but some internal systems in it here . just the other day , sas could not open a full query of the eol database because there wasn ' t enough free space on the server ' s hard drive for the workfiles . in discussing some of these issues with some good friends of mine in power trading , people whom i have known for over 10 years , they indicated they were ubiquitous here . the power traders have similar pc ' s to my new one , and they have complained from day 1 that theirs are slower than their old ones . also , there remains a large frustration with the development of data warehouses ; during my brief tenure here it has gone through two differing proposals as to how to address this . when i have been told of tools available for real - time data harvesting , my requests for such have typically been met with " well , we have it , but we haven ' t really tested it yet . " an example is the weather : we still do not record to disk the hourly nws observations from the goes satellite . my interests here are to help enron to do well , because i will do well only if enron does well . these aren ' t empty words - my ira is 100 % invested in the enron stock fund . i believe my best contributions to enron will be in the areas of systems as well as modeling , and the difficulty working in the research group , in terms of systems development , is that , frankly , few people at enron seem to care what a researcher thinks about our systems . we aren ' t directly generating revenues for enron , and we aren ' t really their customers , except in our relatively small deparrtmental infrastructure expenses . as it happens , power trading posted an opening for a modeling and forecasting person , and i spoke with them and they asked me to take the job , reporting to george hopley . it is a wonderful opportunity for me , vasant , as they are interested in large system modelng of power grids as well as improving their traders ' access to real - time fundamentals data . i was completely candid with kevin presto regarding my shortcomings here in research - i told him you were disgusted with me because i repeatedly failed to meet time deadlines . they also understand i have yet to be at enron for 1 year , and thus may only bid on a job with your permission . we agree the move is good for enron ; we all work for enron , and your acquiescence to the move does not endorse it but merely permit it . they are comfortable with me - they have known me for years as a hard worker , honest and unpretensive . they have already ordered a state - of - the - art unix workstation and server for me , and they have told me they will commit whatever resources are necessary for me to be successful , including hiring an analyst to work for me . and , i have already been able to teach their analysts improved techniques for data harvesting and analysis i have learned here . so , i am requesting your permission to bid for this job opening . it would be a lateral move in position and salary , and i would commit to you to help you in any way possible in the future with regards the gas model or the eol database . i will continue to work on their improvement , and complete their documentation . as it happens , i am away on enron business in portland monday and tuesday , and will be back wednesday . i had wanted to talk face - to - face instead of by email , but enron business supercedes - i am on a team designing the data warehouse for floor trader support . clayton . | 0 |
