Common use of Determination of Volume of LNG Unloaded Clause in Contracts

Determination of Volume of LNG Unloaded. (i) The LNG volume in the tanks of the LNG Vessel before and after unloading (valves have to be closed) shall be determined by gauging on the basis of the tank gauge tables provided for in Paragraph 6. The volume of LNG remaining in the tanks after unloading of the LNG Vessel shall be subtracted from the volume before unloading and the resulting volume shall be taken as the volume of the LNG delivered from the LNG Vessel. The volume of LNG stated in cubic meters to the nearest zero point zero zero one (0.001) cubic meter, shall be determined by using the tank gauge tables and by applying the volume corrections set forth therein. (ii) Gas returned to the LNG Vessel during unloading shall not be deemed to be volume unloaded for Customer’s account. (iii) If failure of the primary gauging and measuring devices of an LNG Vessel should make it impossible to determine the LNG volume, the volume of LNG unloaded shall be determined by gauging the liquid level using the secondary gauging and measurement devices. If an LNG Vessel is not so equipped, the volume of LNG delivered shall be determined by gauging the liquid level in SABINE’s onshore LNG storage tanks immediately before and after unloading the LNG Vessel, and such volume shall have added to it an estimated LNG volume, agreed upon by the Parties, for boil-off from such tanks during the unloading of such LNG Vessel and have added to it the volume of any LNG that has been pumped from the LNG Vessel’s tanks during unloading. SABINE shall provide Customer, or cause Customer to be provided with, a certified copy of tank gauge tables for each onshore LNG tank which is to be used for this purpose, such tables to be verified by a competent impartial authority.

Determination of Volume of LNG Unloaded. (ia) The LNG volume measurements referred to in paragraphs 4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.5 of this Annex C shall be made at the tanks same time. Measurements shall first be made immediately before unloading commences. Accordingly, immediately before opening the manifold emergency shut down valves of the LNG Vessel before Carrier, the initial gauging shall be conducted upon the confirmation of stoppage of all spray pumps and compressors and shut-off of the gas master valve to the LNG Carrier's boilers. The gas master valve to the LNG Carrier's boilers shall remain closed until after the second gauging. A second gauging shall be made immediately after unloading is completed. Accordingly, the second gauging shall be conducted upon the confirmation of shut-off of the manifold emergency shut down valve, with transfer pumps off and allowing sufficient time for the liquid level to stabilize. Measurements prior to unloading and after unloading (valves have to will be closed) shall be determined by gauging carried out based on the basis condition of the tank gauge tables provided for LNG Carrier's lines upon arrival at the berth. Since significant volumes of LNG may remain in Paragraph 6the LNG Carrier's manifold and crossover, gauging will be performed with these lines in the same condition prior to unloading and after unloading. If the LNG Carrier's manifold and crossover lines are empty (warm) when measurement is taken before unloading commences, they will be emptied prior to measurement following the Completion of Unloading. If the crossover lines are liquid filled (cold) when measurement is taken before unloading commences, they will remain full (cold) until measurement is taken following the Completion of Unloading. The volume of LNG remaining in the tanks after unloading of the LNG Vessel shall be subtracted from the volume before unloading and the resulting volume shall be taken as the volume of the LNG delivered from the LNG Vessel. The volume of LNG LNG, stated in cubic meters metres to the nearest zero point decimal zero zero one (0.001) cubic metermetre, shall be determined by using the tank gauge tables referred to in paragraph 2.2 of this Annex C and by applying the volume corrections set forth therein. (iib) Gas returned to the LNG Vessel during unloading shall not be deemed to be volume unloaded for Customer’s account. (iii) If failure of the primary gauging and measuring devices of an LNG Vessel should make it impossible to determine the LNG volume, the The volume of LNG unloaded shall be determined by gauging deducting the liquid level using the secondary gauging and measurement devices. If an LNG Vessel is not so equipped, the total volume of LNG delivered shall be determined by gauging in all LNG tanks (if more than one) immediately after unloading is completed from the liquid level total volume of LNG in SABINE’s onshore those LNG storage tanks immediately before and after unloading the LNG Vessel, and such volume shall have added to it an estimated LNG volume, agreed upon by the Parties, for boil-off from such tanks during the unloading of such LNG Vessel and have added to it the commences. This volume of any LNG that has been pumped from unloaded is then rounded to the LNG Vessel’s tanks during unloading. SABINE shall provide Customer, or cause Customer to be provided with, a certified copy of tank gauge tables for each onshore LNG tank which is to be used for this purpose, such tables to be verified by a competent impartial authoritynearest cubic metre.
