GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS

13. MEASUREMENT (Continued)
13.3 Determination of Heating Value
At Sea Robin's option, the heating value of the gas shall be
determined by calorimeter, chromatograph, or other device of
standard manufacture and shall be either (1) recorded using
charts, digital recorders, etc., in which case an arithmetic
average (to be determined during the period of time during
which flow was occurring at the location of the gross heating
value recorder) of such record shall be the gross heating value
of the gas being measured, or (2) entered as an input to
electronic flow computers in which case the gross heating value
being measured will be used in the computation of the BTU
content of the gas. If a gross heating value measuring device
is not installed or available at an appropriate location, then
the gross heating value shall be determined by a mutually
agreeable method.
13.4 Determination of Flowing Temperature
The flowing temperature of the gas shall be determined for the
purpose of measured volume correction. Volume shall be
corrected for each degree of variation in the flowing
temperature from 60 degrees (60 ) Fahrenheit. The flowing
temperature will be measured by RTD's, thermocouples,
thermometers, etc. and shall be either (1) recorded using
charts, digital recorders, etc., in which case the temperature
at which gas was measured for the period of such record shall
be the arithmetic average of the record during the period of
time during which gas was flowing, or (2) used for on-site flow
computations in electronic flow computers in which case the
instantaneous measurement of temperature will be used in such
computations. Where no temperature measuring device is
installed, the temperature of the gas shall be assumed to be 60
degrees (60 ) Fahrenheit.
13.5 Determination of Specific Gravity
The specific gravity of the gas flowing through the meter or
meters shall be determined at an appropriate location by the
use of a recording gravitometer furnished and installed by the
