and seventy-three hundredths pounds per square inch absolute
(14.73 psia) and under standard gravitational force (acceleration
of 980.665 cm per second 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 expressed in Btu's per cubic
foot. Standardize the reporting basis for gross heating value as
Btu(IT)/cubic foot at standard conditions of 14.73 psia, 60
degrees F, and dry. For gross heating value based on cubic
meters, the reporting standard is megajoules/cubic meter at
standard conditions of 101.325 kPa, 15 degrees C, and dry. (For
reference one megajoule equals one million joules). Standardize
the reporting basis for gas volumes as cubic foot at standard
conditions of 14.73 psia, and 60 degrees F. For gas volumes
reported in cubic meters, the standard conditions are 101.325 kPa
and 15 degrees C. 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); however, if the
gas delivered contains greater than (7) pounds of water vapor per
one million (1,000,000) cubic feet, Transporter will correct the
gross heating value for the actual water content..
hydrocarbons or of hydrocarbons and non-combustible gases, in
gaseous state, consisting essentially of methane.
quantity of natural gas occupying a volume of one thousand
(1,000) cubic feet at a temperature of sixty degrees Fahrenheit
(60EF.) and at a pressure of fourteen and seventy-three
hundredths pounds per square inch absolute (14.73 psia).
nominations, scheduling, confirmations, allocations, invoicing
and balancing in the United States. The standard for Canada
shall be Gigajoules per gas day. (For reference 1 Dekatherm =
1,000,000 Btu’s; and 1 Gigajoule = 1,000,000,000 joules.) For
commercial purposes, the standard conversion factor between
Dekatherm and Gigajoules should be 1.055056 Gigajoules 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.
