4. MEASUREMENT OF GAS (Continued)
filters may be required by Transporter. The party responsible for the
source of any pulsation shall also be responsible for the installation
cost of remedial devices or filtering equipment to reduce or eliminate
such pulsation. If disagreements over pulsation arise, a third-party
consultant acceptable to both Transporter and Shipper will be consulted
to resolve the problem.
4.8 Adjustment of Inaccuracies. Measurement data corrections should be
processed within 6 months of the production month with a 3 month rebuttal
period. This standard shall not apply in the case of deliberate omission
or misrepresentation or mutual mistake of fact. Parties' other statutory
or contractual rights shall not otherwise be dismissed by this standard.
(NAESB 2.3.14)
If the percentage of inaccuracy upon any test shall be an amount
exceeding two percent (2%), the registration of such meter shall be
corrected at the rate of such inaccuracy for any period which is
definitely known or agreed upon. In the event the period is not
definitely known or agreed upon, such correction shall be for a period
extending back one-half (1/2) of the time elapsed since the date of the
last calibration. In no event shall inaccuracies of less than two (2)
percent daily or 100 Dth monthly be corrected.
Following any test, measurement equipment found inaccurate shall
be immediately restored by the operating party as closely as possible to
a condition of accuracy. If the measurement equipment is out of service
or out of repair for any reason so that the amount of gas delivered
cannot be estimated or computed from the reading thereof, the amount of
gas delivered through the period such meter is out of service or out of
repair shall be estimated and agreed upon by the Transporter and
Receiving Party upon the basis of the best data available using the
first of the following methods which is feasible:
(a) by using the registration of the other party's check meter if
installed and accurately registering; or
(b) by correcting the error if the percentage of error is
ascertainable by calibration, test or mathematical calculation; or
