Common use of Measurement Standards Clause in Contracts

Measurement Standards. The measurements of the volume and quality of all Gas, Residue Gas and NGLs, as applicable, delivered at the Receipt Points and Delivery Points (other than the Interstate Delivery Points) will be conducted in accordance with the following provisions. The measurements of the volume and quality of all Gas, Residue Gas and NGLs, as applicable, delivered at the Interstate Delivery Points will be conducted in accordance with the regulations and procedures of the applicable Downstream Facilities at such Interstate Delivery Points. (a) The unit of volume for measurement will be one Standard Cubic Foot. Measured volumes, converted to Mcf, will be multiplied by their Gross Heating Value per Standard Cubic Foot and divided by one thousand (1,000) to determine the MMBtu content. (b) Gas shall be measured in accordance with the Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards Chapter 14.3, Part 3 August 1992, Reaffirmed February 2009, as amended from time to time, in a manner generally accepted by the gas producing industry. (c) All Gas Tendered hereunder at a Receipt Point and Gas or Residue Gas redelivered hereunder at a Delivery Point shall be measured by a suitable measurement device to be furnished and installed (or caused to be furnished and installed) by Provider, and subsequently kept in repair (or caused to be kept in repair) by Provider, and located, other than with respect to Receipt Points related to the assets described under the heading “Plant Inlet Gas and NGL Pipelines from Silurian and Xxxxxxx Truck Facility” on Exhibit A-2, at or near such Receipt Point or Delivery Point, as applicable. Such measurement devices shall be installed, and the meter run fabricated and installed, in accordance with the American Petroleum Institute Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (the “MPMS”) Chapter 14.3, Part 2 April 2000 Reaffirmed May 2011 utilizing EGM (electronic gas measurement) shall be installed pursuant to MPMS Chapter 21.1. (d) The specific gravity of Gas will be determined by spot samples or continuous sampling analyzed by gas chromatograph following recommended industry practice. (e) If a continuous sampling method is used, the gravity to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) will be determined once a Month from a Gas analysis. The result will be applied during the Month for the determination of Gas volumes delivered. TERMS IN THIS EXHIBIT HAVE BEEN REDACTED BECAUSE CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT FOR THOSE TERMS HAS BEEN REQUESTED. THE REDACTED MATERIAL HAS BEEN FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, AND THE TERMS HAVE BEEN MARKED AT THE APPROPRIATE PLACE WITH TWO ASTERISKS (**). (f) If a spot sample is used, the gravity to the nearest one-thousandth (0.001) will be determined at least once each quarter and will be applied until the next spot sample is taken for the determination of Gas volumes delivered. (g) Adjustments to measured Gas volumes for the effects of super compressibility will be made in accordance with accepted American Gas Association standards. Provider or its designee will obtain appropriate carbon dioxide and nitrogen mole fraction values for the Gas delivered as may be required to compute adjustments in accordance with standard testing procedures. At Provider’s or its designee’s option, equations for the calculation of super compressibility may be taken from either the API Chapter 14.2 or American Gas Association Report No. 8, Compressibility and Super Compressibility for Natural Gas and Other Hydrocarbon Gases, latest revision. (h) For purposes of measurement and meter calibration, the average atmospheric pressure for each Receipt Point and Delivery Point is assumed to be 13.5 pounds per square inch absolute. If the pressure transmitter being used is capable of measuring actual atmospheric pressure, then actual atmospheric pressure may be used. (i) The Gross Heating Value of Gas delivered at Receipt Points and Delivery Points will be determined at least once each quarter using either a continuous sampler, spot sampler or gas chromatograph; provided, however, that when Daily deliveries of Gas at any Receipt Point or Delivery Point average five thousand (5,000) Mcf per Day or greater during any Month, the Gross Heating Value of the Gas delivered at that Receipt Point or Delivery Point will be taken at least Monthly at a suitable point on the facilities to be representative of the Gas being metered. (j) The physical constants used in Btu computation for a perfect Gas will be derived from the “Table of Physical Constants of Paraffin Hydrocarbons and Other Compounds” as published in the GPA Standard 2145-03 and superseding revisions thereof. The analysis will be complete and individual values in mole percent or fraction of each Hydrocarbon compound will be listed through C6. The C6+ values will be as stated in GPA standard 2261, 7.
