GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (Continued)
available or may become available at any time during the term of
the Transportation Agreement.
4.2 Such measurement, both volumetric and thermal, shall be at a
temperature of 60 degrees Fahrenheit and at a pressure of 14.73
psia dry, and on the basis of the methods prescribed and
published by the American Gas Association in conjunction with the
ANSI/API 2530 Report as currently available and in accordance
with any subsequent amendments thereof accepted and agreed upon
between the parties if orifice meters are used. If positive
displacement or turbine meters are used, measurement shall be
performed in accordance with AGA-7 as currently available and
with any subsequent amendments thereof accepted and agreed upon
between the parties. Btu content shall be determined by taking
the arithmetic average of the heating value as recorded by a
chromatograph or other method of determination generally accepted
in the industry. Flowing temperatures shall be determined by a
recording thermometer or EGM.
4.3 All measuring stations shall be acceptable to KPC and Shipper and
installed and operated to conform to recognized industry
standards, using flange connections and, where necessary,
pulsation dampening equipment. Auxiliary equipment shall be
installed so as not to interfere with the measurement of either
party.
4.4 Either KPC or Shipper may witness the installation or maintenance
of the other's equipment. Neither KPC nor Shipper shall be
required to verify accuracy more often than once during any 30 Day
period. If, upon test, accuracy is found to be within 2% by
volume (chromatograph within 0.5%), measurements taken by such
equipment shall be assumed to have been Accurate. Any error
exceeding these percentages shall require correction to zero error
of previous recordings back to the date error began. If the
beginning date of error is unknown, correction shall extend to
one-half the time since the last test, not to exceed 16 Days.
4.5 Where wellhead compressors have been installed, the maximum
permissible Square Root Error Indicator (SREI) shall be no greater
than 1% for volumes less than 2 Mmcf per Day and .5% for volumes
