nitrogen, or any applicable formulae published by the American Gas
Association. The molecular percentage of N2 and CO2 shall be
determined at approximately the same time or from the same analyzed gas
sample used for the determination of the compressibility factors, with
corrections for specific gravity, temperature and pressure.

(a) NAESB Standard 2.3.16 (Version 1.8) states: List of allocation
methodology types agreed upon: Ranked, Pro Rata, Percentage, Swing,

should accept NAESB-approved allocation methodology types from the
upstream or downstream custody transfer party who is providing the

transportation service provider has an OBA in effect for a point. In
