received from Shipper by Transporter at the Point of Receipt, plus or
minus any attributable line losses or unaccounted-for gas.
The specific quantity in MMBtu of gas to be redelivered by Transporter to
Shipper or for Shipper's account (herein referred to as Shipper's
"Redelivery Quantity") shall be determined each month as the product of
(a) and (b) below:
(a) The volume of gas in MMBtu received by Transporter from Shipper at
the Point of Receipt for transportation during the month.
(b) A fraction, the numerator of which is the measured volume in MMBtu
of all gas delivered by Transporter from its pipeline during the
month, and the denominator of which is the measured volume in MMBtu
of all gas received by Transporter during the month.
Scheduling on a daily basis shall reflect the general procedures
identified above. The timing for reporting daily operational allocations
after the gas has flowed is within one business day after the end of the
gas day. If the best available data for reporting daily operational
allocations is the scheduled quantity, that quantity should be used for
the daily operational allocation. Precise balancing shall be on a monthly
basis. Any imbalances during a particular month shall be kept to the
minimum permitted by operating conditions and balanced out as soon as
practicable. Imbalance statements should be generated at the same time or
prior to the generation of the transportation invoice. The imbalance
statement should be rendered prior to or with the invoice, and the
transportation invoice should be prepared on or before the 9th business
day after the end of the production month. Rendered is defined as
postmarked, time-stamped, and delivered to the designated site.
Delivery point allocations should be performed at the lowest level of
detail provided by nominations. The determination of deliveries
applicable to Shipper shall be made in accordance with the thermal
balancing provisions above unless a PDA in accordance with the PDA
provision below or an operating arrangement satisfactory to Shipper,
Transporter and any third party transporting to or from Transporter's
system is submitted. The responsibility for calculation and reporting of
allocated quantities should rest with the party responsible for accepting
NAESB allocation types. The party receiving nominations should provide
allocation statements. The upstream or downstream party providing the
point confirmation should submit the pre-determined allocation to the
allocating party after or during confirmation and before the start of the
gas day. To the extent there is no OBA or PDA, Transporter shall allocate
deliveries pro rata based on confirmed quantities. As a minimum,
allocations should be provided by both contract and location. The types
of allocation methodologies is a list from
