GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
----------------------------
(d) The standard quantity for nominations, confirmation and
scheduling is dekatherms per gas day in the United States, gigajoules
per gas day in Canada and gigacalories per gas day in Mexico. (For
reference, 1 dekatherm = 1,000,000 Btus; 1 gigajoule = 1,000,000,000
joules; and 1 gigacalorie = 1,000,000,000 calories.) For commercial
purposes, the standard conversion factor between dekatherms and
gigajoules is 1.055056 gigajoules per dekatherm and between dekatherms
and gigacalories is 0.251996 gigacalories per dekatherm. The standard
Btu is the International Btu, which is also called the Btu (IT); the
standard joule is the joule specified in the SI system of units. The
International Btu is specified for use in the gas measurement standards
of the American Gas Association, the American Petroleum Institute, the
Gas Processors Association and the American Society for Testing
Materials. For non-commercial purposes, these associations note that
the exact conversion factor is 1.05505585262 Gigajoules per Dekatherm.
