2. MEASUREMENT
2.1 Unit of Measurement and Metering Base. The Volumetric measurement
based shall be 1 cubic foot of gas at a pressure base of 14.73
pounds per square inch absolute, at a temperature base of 60 degrees
Fahrenheit, and without adjustment for water vapor.
2.2 The cutoff for closing measurement is five Business Days after the
business Month (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.7). Measurement data that is
missing or late at the cutoff is to be estimated pursuant to NAESB
WGQ Standard 2.3.13. For treatment of measurement prior period
adjustments, treat the adjustment by taking it back to the
production Month. A meter adjustment becomes a prior period
adjustment after the fifth Business Day following the business Month
(NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.11). For reporting measurement prior period
adjustments, report it with the restated line item with the new
total quantity for the Day and Month (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.12).
Measurement data corrections shall be performed pursuant to NAESB
WGQ Standard 2.3.14. Measurement data corrections should be
processed within 6 Months of the production Month with a 3-Month
rebuttal period. This standard shall not apply in the case of
deliberate omission or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact.
Parties' other statutory or contractual rights shall not otherwise
be diminished by this standard (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.14). This 3-
Month rebuttal period shall begin with the interested party issuing
a written notification that a measurement dispute exists. These
disputes will apply to measurement errors that involve quantities
for which Transporter has direct custody transfer responsibilities,
as well as volumes measured by other companies that have been
audited by Transporter.
2.3 Measurement data available upstream of aggregated points should be
sent to the allocating party and used to allocate the aggregated
volume back to the upstream points (NAESB WGQ Standard 2.3.8).
2.4 Transporter's measurement information provided via electronic
delivery mechanism (EDM) shall conform to the requirements of the
Data Dictionary standards as set forth in NAESB WGQ Standards 2.4.4
and 2.4.5.
