Yes, and it is a substantial move. A pipeline compliance coordinator already covers 32% of what a gas transmission system operator is expected to do: 6 skills carry over, 5 of which the gas transmission system operator role treats as required.

7 required skills are missing, plus 13 optional ones. They fall into 6 areas of the ESCO skill hierarchy, led by engineering, manufacturing and construction. The single most important is gas market.

Its learning distance is 64.2 out of 100, which is the substantial band. That accounts for both how much is missing and how specialised those skills are.
