These revenues are recognized on a monthly basis once the Partnership’s performance obligation to provide capacity has been satisfied.

NOTE 6 REVENUES

Disaggregation of Revenues

For the three and six months ended June 30, 2019 and 2018, effectively all of the Partnership’s revenues were from capacity arrangements and transportation contracts with customers as discussed in more detail below.

Capacity Arrangements and Transportation Contracts

The Partnership’s performance obligations in its contracts with customers consist primarily of capacity arrangements and natural gas transportation contracts.

The Partnership’s revenues are generated from contractual arrangements for committed capacity and from transportation of natural gas which are treated as a bundled performance obligation. Revenues earned from firm contracted capacity arrangements are recognized ratably over the term of the contract regardless of the amount of natural gas that is transported. Transportation revenues for interruptible or volumetric-based services are recognized when the service is performed. The Partnership has elected to utilize the practical expedient of recognizing revenue as invoiced.

The Partnership's pipeline systems are subject to FERC regulations and, as a result, a portion of revenues collected may be subject to refund if invoiced during an interim period when a rate proceeding is ongoing. Allowances for these potential refunds are recognized using management's best estimate based on the facts and circumstances of the proceeding. Any allowances that are recognized during the proceeding process are refunded or retained, as applicable, at

the time a regulatory decision becomes final. As of June 30, 2019, the Partnership does not have any outstanding refund obligations related to any rate proceedings. Revenues are invoiced and paid on a monthly basis. The Partnership’s pipeline systems do not take ownership of the natural gas that is transported for customers. Revenues from contracts with customers are recognized net of any taxes collected from customers, which are subsequently remitted to governmental authorities.

Contract Balances

All of the Partnership’s contract balances pertain to receivables from contracts with customers amounting to $31 million at June 30, 2019 (December 31, 2018 - $44 million) and are recorded as Trade accounts receivable and reported as “Accounts receivable and other” in the Partnership’s consolidated balance sheet (Refer to Note 14).

Additionally, our accounts receivable represent the Partnership’s unconditional right to consideration for services completed which includes billed and unbilled accounts.

Future revenue from remaining performance obligations

When the right to invoice practical expedient is applied, the guidance does not require disclosure of information related to future revenue from remaining performance obligations, therefore, no additional disclosure is required.

Additionally, in the application of the right to invoice practical expedient, the Partnership’s revenues from regulated capacity arrangements are recognized based on rates specified in the contract. Therefore, the amount invoiced, which includes the capacity contracted and variable volume of natural gas transported, corresponds directly to the value the customer received. These revenues are recognized on a monthly basis once the Partnership’s performance obligation to provide capacity has been satisfied.
