GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
(1) The unit of volume for the purpose of measurement shall be
one thousand cubic feet of Gas at a temperature of sixty
degrees (60º) Fahrenheit and a pressure of 14.73 pounds per
square inch absolute, dry. Volumes reported in cubic
meters, the standard conditions are 101.325 kPa, 15 degrees
C, and dry. Volumes reported in Gigacalories, the standard
conditions are 1.035646 Kg/cm2, 15.6 degrees C, and dry.
The Dekatherm equivalent of such unit of volume shall be
determined by multiplying each such unit of volume by the
total heating value per cubic foot of the Gas delivered
hereunder (adjusted to a common temperature and pressure
base) and by dividing the result by one thousand (1,000).
(2) The average absolute atmospheric (barometric) pressure
at the Point of Injection/Withdrawal shall be assumed to
be equal to 14.4 pounds per square inch.
(3) The flowing temperature of the Gas shall be determined by
means of an instrument of standard manufacture accepted
in the industry for this purpose.
(4) The supercompressibility factor used in computing the
volume of Gas delivered through an orifice meter shall be
determined in a manner which yields results consistent
with the results produced by the procedures presented in
the American Gas Association Transmission Measurement
Committee Report No. 8 entitled "Compressibility and
Supercompressibility for Natural Gas and Other
Hydrocarbon Gases."
(5) The specific gravity of the Gas used in computing the
volume of Gas delivered through a meter shall be
determined by one of the following methods:
(i) At intervals of not more than six (6) Months, by
means of an instrument of standard manufacture
accepted in the industry for this purpose using a
sample of Gas from the Gas stream at the Point of
Injection/Withdrawal.
(ii) By means of an instrument of standard manufacture
accepted in the industry for this purpose installed
at a point to measure the specific gravity of the
Gas stream from which Gas is being delivered at the
Point of Injection/Withdrawal.
