GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
Section 3.3 (continued)
The water content shall be determined at such intervals as shall be found
necessary in practice, by the use of dew point apparatus approved by the
Bureau of Mines and utilizing curves for "Water Vapor Content of
Compressed Natural Gas" comprising Figure 41 to Bureau of Mines, U.S.
Department of the Interior, Monograph 8 "Gas Hydrates and Their Relations
to the Operation of Natural-Gas PipeLines," or by such other curve or method
as shall be mutually agreed upon.
3.4 Should any gas delivered to COMPANY fail at any time to conform to any
of the specifications provided for in Section 3.1(a)-(f), COMPANY shall notify
SHIPPER of any such failure and may at its option suspend all or a portion
of the receipt of any such gas, and COMPANY shall be relieved of any of its
obligations for the duration of such time as the gas does not meet such
specifications. Upon receipt of COMPANY'S notice of such a failure,
SHIPPER shall, at its option, either terminate deliveries into COMPANY'S system
or make a diligent effort to correct such failure by treatment or dehydration
consistent with prudent operation so as to deliver gas conforming to the
specifications provided for in this Section 3. Any gas delivered to COMPANY that
fails to meet an HDP Specification issued pursuant to Section 3.1(g) shall be
handled in accordance with the procedures set out in said section.
4. MEASUREMENT
4.1 Unit of Volume:
The unit of volume shall be a cubic foot.
4.2 Measurement of Volume:
(a) When gas is delivered at a pressure different from 14.73 pounds per
square inch absolute, then for the purpose of measurement hereunder,
such volumes of gas shall be corrected to a pressure of 14.73 pounds
per square inch absolute. It is assumed that the atmospheric pressure
is 14.4 pounds per square inch or such other pressure as agreed upon
by COMPANY and SHIPPER. The measurement of gas volumes shall
be adjusted for deviation from Boyle's Law in accordance with
generally accepted engineering practice; provided, however, that where
gas is delivered through positive displacement meters at a pressure not
in excess of 20 pounds per square inch gauge, the gas may be assumed
to obey Boyle's law.
(b) Where orifice meters are used, volumes delivered shall be computed
in accordance with formulae, tables and methods prescribed in Orifice
Metering of Natural Gas and Other
