About this file
The document is an internal email from Tim Gauthier, Associate Director of Engineering and Utilities at the University of Montana, discussing gas volume requirements for a potential natural gas contract. The email outlines a projected total gas volume of 531,600 MMBTU per year, which is approximately 15% higher than previous McKinstry estimates based on 2018 data. The projection includes a detailed monthly breakdown of gas volume requirements, ranging from 31,000 MMBTU in July and August to 58,900 MMBTU in December and January.
While the related contract opportunity description references lawn care services for Montana Army Guard Helena Aviation Facilities, the email focuses specifically on natural gas volume needs for the University of Montana in Missoula. The gas volume projection appears to be a preparatory document for a potential natural gas procurement or contract negotiation, with Gauthier seeking input from colleagues Bob Hlynosky and Jameel Chaudhry on the estimated volumes. The contingency of 15% above previous estimates is noted as a strategic approach to ensure adequate gas supply, though Gauthier remains open to alternative suggestions.

Bob, Jameel told me to send you what we need for gas volume. The projected total I have is 531,600 MMBTU/year, which is about 15% above what McKinstry estimated based on 2018 data. I think this contingency is good since we’d rather err on the side of having more gas than not enough, but I’m open to suggestion on that.
Here is also the projected monthly MMBTU:
