Sažetak
With growing importance of natural gas as third most important fuel and fastest growing component of world primary energy consumption, its supply chains are becoming more complex in seeking of ways for simultaneous optimization and further expansion. To gain clearer insight into situation and relations between members of natural gas supply chain, to explore possibilities for optimization of its processes, to avoid multiplication of activities and to prevent the occurrence of failures or catastrophe in the system, practitioners and scientist use supply chain mapping techniques. Paper aims to present existing types of supply chain maps, its benefits, limitations and ways of use for natural gas supply chain mapping through case study method of mapping Croatian natural gas supply chain. The second objective is to identify key sources of the inefficiency of the process under regulated market conditions and to offer a conceptual simulation model that can serve to eliminate or minimize the inefficiencies resulting from the mismatch between the order (nomination) and the withdrawal of gas by the balance groups.
