Measurement Accuracy Verification Sample Clauses
The Measurement Accuracy Verification clause establishes the process and standards for confirming the precision of measurements relevant to the contract, such as quantities of goods delivered or services performed. Typically, this clause outlines the methods for verifying measurements, the parties responsible for conducting or witnessing the verification, and the procedures to follow if discrepancies are found. Its core function is to ensure that all parties have a clear and agreed-upon method for validating measurements, thereby reducing disputes and promoting fairness in contract execution.

Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Orifice plate and tube inspection will be made at each meter calibration unless a facility shut-down is required, in which case the approval of both Parties shall be required for such inspection. The accuracy of Gatherer’s Measurement Facilities shall be verified by meter calibrations and orifice inspections shall be conducted, according to API 21.1 and API 14.3, once every three Months or more often as determined by Gatherer. Measuring equipment found to be measuring and/or reading inaccurately shall be adjusted to measure and read accurately. Gatherer shall give Shipper at least two Days’ notice of upcoming tests. If Shipper fails to have a representative present, the results of the test shall nevertheless be considered accurate until the next test. Gatherer shall, upon written request of Shipper, conduct a test of Gatherer’s measuring equipment and/or a chromatographic analysis, provided that in no event shall Gatherer be required to test its equipment or conduct a chromatographic analysis more frequently than once a Month. All tests of such measuring equipment or such chromatographic analysis shall be made at Gatherer’s expense, except that Shipper shall bear the expense of any tests or chromatographic analysis made at Shipper’s request.
(b) If, during any test of the Measuring Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter run in excess of two percent of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by Shipper and Gatherer) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.7. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between Shipper and Gatherer, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the two percent error.
(c) If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated hourly flow rate which does not exceed two percent of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and electronic flow computer data shall be considered to be accu...
Measurement Accuracy Verification
Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Each Party shall verify the accuracy of all Measurement Facilities owned by such Party at intervals based upon the following schedule:
(i) semi-annually for Gas Measurement Facilities metering less than one thousand (1,000) Mcf per Day;
(ii) quarterly for Gas Measurement Facilities metering between one thousand (1,000) and five thousand (5,000) Mcf per Day;
(iii) monthly for Gas Measurement Facilities metering more than five thousand (5,000) Mcf per Day; and
(iv) quarterly for Liquid Hydrocarbons Measurement Facilities. Neither Party shall be required to cause adjustment or calibration of such equipment more frequently than once per Month, unless a special test is requested pursuant to Section 11.7.
(b) If, during any test of the Measuring Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter run in excess of one percent (1%) of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by the Parties) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.8. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between the Parties, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the one percent (1%) error.
(c) If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated hourly flow rate which does not exceed one percent (1%) of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and electronic flow computer data shall be considered to be accurate for quantity determination purpose.
Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Gatherer shall calibrate meters as often as required, as determined by Gatherer in accordance with standard industry practices to reasonably assure accurate measurement, but at least once per year.
(b) If, during any test of the Measuring Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter in excess of two percent of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by Producer and Gatherer) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between Producer and Gatherer, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the two percent error.
(c) If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate which does not exceed two percent of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and data shall be considered to be accurate for quantity determination purpose.
Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Each Party shall verify the accuracy of all Measurement Facilities or other equipment or facilities used in measuring or checking the measurement of volumes of Fresh Water or Produced Water under this Agreement owned by such Party no less frequently than twice per year, unless a special test is requested pursuant to Section 10.4.
(b) If, during any test of such Measuring Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter run in excess of two percent (2%) of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by the Parties) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.5. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between the Parties, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the two percent (2%) error.
(c) If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or calibration error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated hourly flow rate which does not exceed two percent (2%) of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and electronic flow computer data shall be considered to be accurate for volume determination purpose.
Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Gatherer shall calibrate meters as often as required, as determined by Gatherer in accordance with standard industry practices and applicable regulatory standards to reasonably assure accurate measurement, but at least once per month for any Receipt Point with a LACT meter unit.
(b) If, during any test of the Measuring Facilities, an adjustment or meter proving error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate through each meter in excess of 0.25% of the adjusted flow rate (whether positive or negative and using the adjusted flow rate as the percent error equation denominator), then any previous recordings of such equipment shall be corrected to zero error for any period during which the error existed (and which is either known definitely or agreed to by Shipper and Gatherer) and the total flow for the period redetermined in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.5. If the period of error condition cannot be determined or agreed upon between Shipper and Gatherer, such correction shall be made over a period extending over the last one half of the time elapsed since the date of the prior test revealing the 0.25% error.
(c) If, during any test of any Measurement Facilities, an adjustment or meter proving error is found which results in an incremental adjustment to the calculated flow rate which does not exceed 0.25% of the adjusted flow rate, all prior recordings and data shall be considered to be accurate for quantity determination purpose.
Measurement Accuracy Verification. (a) Carrier shall calibrate Receipt Point and Delivery Point meters once per month or as often as required, as determined by Carrier in accordance with standard industry practices to reasonably assure accurate measurement. The volume of Crude Petroleum measured at the Receipt Point(s) and Delivery Point(s) will be measured by meters (including calibration and proving meters) and sampled in accordance with appropriate American Petroleum Institute (API) Manual for Petroleum Measurement Standards, latest revision, and adjusted to base (reference standard) conditions.
