GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
7. NOMINATIONS, CONFIRMATIONS, BALANCING, SEGMENTATION, DISCOUNT POLICY AND
RESERVATION CHARGE CREDITS (Contd.)
7.1 GENERAL (Contd.)
B. For non-Intra-Day Nominations, a rollover option is
available such that a Shipper shall have the ability to
nominate for several Days, Months, or Years, provided the
Nomination begin and end dates are within the term of the
Shipper's contract. All Nominations should be based on a
daily quantity and all volumes shall be expressed in Dth per
Day and shall be stated for each Receipt and Delivery Point.
C. If an upstream or downstream party requires additional
information, if the volumes transported are subject to a
discounted rate, or if additional information is otherwise
required by Transporter, then, upon notification by
Transporter, Shipper must include in each Nomination such
additional information as is specified by Transporter.
Nominations must be submitted to Transporter through
Transporter's Interactive Website, or through such other
electronic means as are mutually agreed upon by Transporter
and Shipper. The sending party should adhere to Nomination,
confirmation and scheduling deadlines. The receiving party
may waive any submittal deadline in this Section 7.
D. The standard quantity for Nominations, confirmation and
scheduling is dekatherms per Gas Day in the United States,
gigajoules per Gas Day in Canada and gigacalories per Gas
Day in Mexico. (For reference, 1 dekatherm = 1,000,000
Btus; 1 gigajoule = 1,000,000,000 joules; and 1 gigacalorie
= 1,000,000,000 calories.) For commercial purposes, the
standard conversion factor between dekatherms and gigajoules
is 1.055056 gigajoules per dekatherm and between dekatherms
and gigacalories is 0.251996 gigacalories per dekatherm.
The standard Btu is the International Btu, which is also
called the Btu (IT); the standard joule is the joule
specified in the SI system of units. The International Btu
is specified for use in the Gas measurement standards of the
American Gas Association, the American Petroleum Institute,
the Gas Processors Association and the American Society for
Testing Materials. For non-commercial purposes, these
associations note that the exact conversion factor is
1.05505585262 Gigajoules per Dekatherm.
