GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS (cont'd)
3. MEASUREMENT (cont'd)
3.2 (cont'd)
(d) The specific gravity of the gas shall be
determined by continuous use of a recording
gravitometer or any other industry accepted
instruments and methods for determining
specific gravity as may be agreed upon by
Shipper/Shipper's Agent and Transporter and so
installed that it will monitor the specific
gravity of the gas measured; the arithmetic
average specific gravity recorded during
periods of flow only shall be deemed the
specific gravity of the gas for the purpose of
calculating quantities.
(e) The total heating value of the flowing gas
shall be determined by use of a continuous
recording calorimeter of a make and type as may
be agreed upon by Shipper/Shipper's Agent and
Transporter and so installed that it will
monitor the total heating value of the gas
measured or any other method generally accepted
in the industry and mutually agreed upon.
(f) The deviation of the gas from Boyle's Law, used
in the computation of quantities, shall be
determined by tests at intervals of one month
or at such other intervals as are found
necessary; a complete analysis of the physical
and chemical properties of the gas shall be
made and the determination of deviation shall
be made by applying this data to tables of
"Supercompressibility Factors for Natural Gas"
published by the AGA in conjunction with AGA
Measurement Committee Report No. 3, or as such
rules, regulations, and factors may be amended
from time to time, or any other methods of
determination as may be mutually agreed upon.
3.3 Quantities of gas received by Transporter for
transportation shall be analyzed as follows:
