GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(continued)
(f) The specific gravity of the gas flowing through the meters shall be
determined by gas chromatographic analysis, recording gravitometer, or
continuous or spot sampling methods, unless otherwise mutually agreed upon by
Shipper and Pipeline. The arithmetic average of the specific gravity recorded
during each 24-hour Gas Day shall be used in computing gas quantities or other
periodic measurements within a shorter time frame or instantaneous specific
gravity measurements may be applied to metering instruments to provide the
quantity computation.
(g) When orifice meters are used, the computation of quantities of gas
delivered shall be in accordance with the recommendations as published by the
American Gas Association's Report No. 3, “Orifice Metering of Natural Gas and
Other Related Hydrocarbon Fluids” (ANSI/API 2530), and any subsequent
modifications or amendments thereof as may be mutually agreed upon by Shipper
and Pipeline.
(h) The Total Heating Value shall be measured, unless otherwise agreed by
the parties concerned, by methods in accordance with acceptable industry
practice, such as, but not limited to, recording calorimeter(s) or gas
chromatograph(s) located at appropriate points. The arithmetic average of the
heating value recorded each 24 hour Gas Day and as adjusted to conditions as
specified in Section 1 of the GT&Cs, or other periodic measurements within a
shorter time frame as Pipeline shall select, shall be used for computations.
(i) The deviation of the gas delivered hereunder from Boyle's and Charles'
Laws shall be determined in accordance with, but not limited to, the published
recommendations of the American Gas Association's Report No. 3, Revised 1994
and the American National Standards Institute as Pipeline deems to be in
accordance with accepted industry practice.
