GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Section 2
(Continued)
"Measured Quantities" shall mean the product of the corrected
heating value times the measured Mcf at 14.73 psia. The gross
heating value is the number of BTU's produced by the complete
combustion, at constant pressure, of the quantity of Gas which
would occupy a volume of one (1) cubic foot at a temperature of
sixty degrees Fahrenheit (60EF.), if saturated with water vapor
and at a constant pressure of fourteen and seventy-three
hundredths pounds per square inch absolute (14.73 psia) and under
standard gravitational force (acceleration of 980.665 cm per
second) with air of the same temperature and pressure as the Gas
when the products of combustion are cooled to the initial
temperature of the Gas and air and when the water formed by
combustion is condensed to the liquid state.
The gross heating value so determined shall be corrected from the
conditions of testing to that of the actual condition of the Gas
as delivered (including the conversion from saturated to actual
conditions) expressed in BTU's per cubic foot. If the Gas as
delivered contains seven (7) pounds of water vapor or less per
one million (1,000,000) cubic feet, such Gas shall be assumed to
have zero (0) pounds of water per one million (1,000,000) cubic
feet (dry gas). Standardize the reporting basis for BTU as
14.73, and psia, 60 degrees F (101.325 kPA and 15 degrees C, and
dry).
"Month" shall mean a period beginning at 9:00 A.M. Central Clock
Time on the first Day of a calendar month and ending at 9:00 A.M.
Central Clock Time on the first Day of the next succeeding
calendar month.
"Natural Gas" or "Gas" shall mean any mixture of hydrocarbons or
of hydrocarbons and non-combustible gases, in a gaseous state,
consisting essentially of methane.
