GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
3. MEASUREMENT
3.1 Unit of Volume:
The unit of volume shall be a cubic foot.
3.2 Measurement of Volume:
(a) When gas is delivered at a pressure different from 14.73
pounds per square inch absolute, then for the purpose of
measurement hereunder, such volumes of gas shall be
corrected to a pressure of 14.73 pounds per square inch
absolute. The measurement of gas volumes shall be adjusted
for deviation from Boyle's Law in accordance with generally
accepted engineering practice. The factor used to correct
to the pressure base of 14.73 pounds per square inch
absolute shall be stated to at least the sixth decimal
place.
(b) Where orifice meters are used, volumes delivered shall be
computed in accordance with formulae, tables and methods
prescribed in Orifice Metering of natural gas and other
related hydrocarbons fluids, AGA Report No. 3 - ANSI/API
2530, as revised September 1985, and as such report may
hereafter be further revised (i.e. AGA Report No. 3, 1992
Edition and AGA Report No. 8). Exact measurements of inside
diameters of meter tubes shall be obtained by means of
micrometer to the nearest one-thousandth inch. Said volumes
shall be corrected for flowing temperature and specific
gravity in accordance with the provisions of paragraph (c)
and (d) below.
(c) The flowing temperature of the gas shall be determined for
the purpose of measured volume correction. Volume shall be
corrected for each degree of variation in the flowing
temperature from 60 degrees Fahrenheit. The flowing
temperature will be measured by the continuous use of
