GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
2. Measurement (Continued)
2.4 Determination of Heating Value and Specific Gravity. The gross
Heating Value and specific gravity of the Gas may be determined
by Gas chromatographic analysis or any other method mutually
agreed upon. This shall be done by either a Gas sample or by an
on-line Gas chromatograph. In the event a spot or continuous Gas
sampling device is used, intervals mutually agreed upon should
not be less than every Month. The determination of gross Heating
Value and specific gravity from chromatograph shall input
continuously into the computer for quantity calculations. In the
event a spot or continuous Gas sampler is installed, then the
gross Heating Value and specific gravity shall be determined in
the laboratory by chromatograph and will be used from the date
the analysis is downloaded into the flow computer until the date
the next sample is analyzed and downloaded to the flow computer.
All gross Heating Value and specific gravity determinations made
with a chromatograph shall use physical Gas constants for Gas
compounds, as outlined in AGA 5 with any subsequent amendments or
revisions to which the parties may mutually agree.
2.5 Compressibility. The measurement hereunder shall be corrected for
deviation from Boyle's law in accordance with AGA Report No. 8, as
amended from time to time.
2.6 Measurement Equipment
(a) Unless otherwise agreed between Transporter and
Operator/Interconnecting Party, Transporter will install,
maintain, operate or cause to be installed, maintained and
operated, measuring stations equipped with flow meters and
other necessary metering and measuring equipment by which
the volumes of Gas received and delivered hereunder shall be
determined. Subject to the terms of the interconnect
agreement at Transporter's sole election, Shipper may
install check-measuring equipment at its own cost and
expense, provided such equipment shall be so installed as
not to interfere with the operations of Transporter. The
measurement equipment of Shipper shall be for check purposes
only and, except as expressly provided in the applicable
interconnect agreement, shall not be used in the measurement
of Gas for purposes of the Agreement.
(b) Orifice Meters. Orifice meters shall be installed and Gas
volumes computed in accordance with the standards prescribed
in AGA Report No. 3 "Orifice Metering of Natural Gas."
