Common use of Pressures at Receipt Points Clause in Contracts

Pressures at Receipt Points. Shipper shall deliver or cause to be delivered Crude Oil to each Receipt Point on the Gathering System from atmospheric tanks or from low pressure separation at sufficient pressure to enter Gatherer’s Receipt Point pump on the Gathering System against its operating pressure, except that Gatherer shall not be obligated to gather Crude Oil at pressures in excess of the maximum allowable operating pressure of the Gathering System at such Receipt Point, as determined by Gatherer in its sole discretion. Gatherer shall operate its measurement and Receipt Point pump at a pressure that allows Producer to deliver Crude Oil directly from its atmospheric tanks or low pressure separation into the Gathering System without additional pumps; provided that such atmospheric tanks have a minimum of four feet of hydrostatic head or low pressure separation at the low liquid level to allow Gatherer’s pumps to attain proper suction pressure.
