GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS
(Continued)
14.4 Atmospheric Pressure. For the purpose of measurement,
calculation and meter calibration, the average absolute atmospheric
(barometric) pressure will be based on the actual altitude at each point of
measurement irrespective of variations in natural atmospheric pressure from
time to time. When electronic computer measurement is used, the atmospheric
pressure will be the barometric pressure calculated for the elevation at the
point of measurement.
14.5 Flowing Temperature. The temperature of the gas will be
determined at the points of measurement by means of a properly installed
recording thermometer or continuous electronic transducer input to a computer
(of standard manufacture selected by Questar). When used with orifice meters,
the gas temperature device shall be installed and operated, and the gas
temperature quantities computed, in accordance with AGA Report No. 3, Part 2,
API Chapter No. 21.1, and API Chapter 14.3. When used with turbine meters,
the gas temperature device shall be installed and operated, and the gas
temperature quantities computed, in accordance with AGA Report No. 7 and API
Chapter 21.1. When used with rotary meters, the gas temperature device shall
be installed and operated, and the gas temperature quantities computed, in
accordance with AGA ANSI B109.3 and API Chapter 21.1. When used with
ultrasonic meters, the gas temperature device shall be installed and
operated, and the gas temperature quantities computed, in accordance with AGA
Report No. 9 and API Chapter No. 21.1.
14.6 Gross Heating Value and Specific Gravity.
(a) The determination of gross heating value and specific
gravity will be made from the composition by calculation using physical gas
constants for gas compounds
