Quality Determinations. (a) Quality determination of all receipts and deliveries shall be based on a qualified laboratory’s analyses performed on representative samples obtained by the methods outlined below:
(i) a representative sample of all Crude Oil received by truck will be obtained via flow-proportional in-line sampler that performs according to API MPMS 8.2;
(ii) a representative sample of all Crude Oil received from or delivered to pipeline will be determined by flow-proportional in-line sampler that performs according to API MPMS 8.2. If a flow-proportional in-line sampler is not available or if it malfunctions, Holdings and Company shall agree on alternate custody transfer samples sources (shore tanks); or
(iii) a representative sample of all Crude Oil received from waterborne vessels at Terminals will be determined by flow-proportional in-line sampler that performs according to API MPMS 8.2, provided that if a flow-proportional in-line sampler is not available or if it malfunctions, a representative sample will be comprised of volumetric composite samples performed by the IIC from delivering marine vessel’s cargo tanks.
(b) Volumetric deductions for sediment and water content shall be made by one of the methods described in API MPMS Chapter 10 in the following order of preference: Water Xxxx Xxxxxx ASTM D4928 Distillation ASTM D4006) Centrifuge ASTM D4007 (Lab) or ASTM D90 (Xxxxx) Sediment Membrane filtration ASTM D4807 Extraction ASTM D473 Centrifuge ASTM D4007 (Lab) or ASTM D90 (Xxxxx) Full deduction for all free water and sediment and water content shall be made according to the ASTM and API MPMS published methods and standards.
Quality Determinations. Necessary determinations of ---------------------- the quality of any Product shall be determined in accordance with the sampling procedure for such Product specified under the heading "Quality Measurement" on the Schedule related to such Product and Section 5.11 of the Services and Supply Agreement.
Quality Determinations. The quality of Renewable Products delivered to Pxxxxxxx 66 shall be determined based on static load tank prior to load.
Quality Determinations. The quality of Renewable Diesel delivered to Pxxxxxxx 66 shall be determined based on static load tank prior to load.
Quality Determinations. The quality of Feedstock shall be determined by load certificate of analysis subject to verification by BKRF at the Feedstock Delivery Point. Should a quantity of Feedstock supplied by Vitol not meet the Feedstock Specification following verification, which verification may be made by an Independent Inspector retained by BKRF at such time as the Feedstock is being delivered by Vitol to the Feedstock Delivery Point, BKRF may accept or reject the Off-Specification Feedstock pursuant to Section 3.7. Should a quantity of Off-Specification Feedstock be accepted by BKRF, the load certificate of analysis shall be final and binding except in the case of fraud or manifest error. Testing and certification procedures for the quality of Feedstock shall be undertaken in accordance with Sections 5.3 and 5.4.
Quality Determinations. The quality of Product shall be determined according to Sections 5.3 and 5.4.

Quality Determinations. Valero shall provide a Certificate of Analysis for each shipment of Light Products. Mobil may utilize independent spot inspections to verify the quality of products loaded onto marine vessels, except when quality is altered by product on the vessel prior to loading. In such case, product quality shall be determined by line sample or shore tank. The cost for the barge inspections required hereunder shall be divided equally between Mobil and Valero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Valero shall be obligated to collect a representative sample of each delivery of Light Product to a marine vessel and retain such sample for at least thirty (30) days. For deliveries into MPLC G & D Pipelines, MPLC tests shall prevail. For deliveries into Colonial, Colonial tests for quality shall prevail. At Mobil's sole cost, Mobil may utilize independent spot inspections to verify the quality of products produced at the Refinery and transported by Pipeline, provided, however, if an independent spot inspection is required to validate an Off-Spec Product, the cost of the inspection shall be divided equally between Mobil and Valero. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mobil shall be obligated to collect a representative sample of each delivery of Light Product to the LPT, to the MPLC G & D Pipelines or to Colonial and retain such sample for at least thirty (30) days. Mobil shall have the right to be present at any test or inspection conducted under this Section 8.4.

Quality Determinations. Valero agrees that the Lubricant Base Oils delivered hereunder to meet Mobil's Base Oil Requirements shall be Straight Cut Lubricant Base Oils (except Stock 6329) produced from crude oils on the then current list of Mobil Approved Crude Oils. Valero agrees to maintain quality procedures consistent with Mobil maintaining a QS-9000 certification at the LOBP. Valero shall provide a Certificate of Analysis for each shipment of Lubricant Base Oils. For deliveries through the dedicated Lubricant Base Oils pipeline system, Valero shall provide a Certificate of Analysis for each batch of Lubricant Base Oils. If a Lubricant Base Oils delivery tank consists of more than one batch of previously certified batches, the tanks shall be recertified utilizing top, middle and bottom samples. Mobil may utilize an independent inspector to verify the quality of products loaded onto marine vessels. The independent inspector shall inspect the marine vessel's shipping compartments and verify that they are free and clean of potential contaminants and shall verify the quality of the Lubricant Base Oil before and during loading. The results of the independent inspector, with respect to quality, shall be final and binding on the Parties. The cost of the independent inspector shall be paid by Mobil. Mobil may utilize an independent inspector to verify the quality of products produced at the Refinery and delivered through the dedicated Lubricant Base Oils pipeline system, the cost of the inspection shall be paid by Mobil, unless the Parties dispute the quality of the products, in which case the costs shall be divided equally between Mobil and Valero. Valero shall be responsible for ensuring that the dedicated Lubricant Base Oils pipeline system is clean, up to the title/custody transfer point, for each Stock of Lubricant Base Oils delivered to the LOBP. Mobil shall have the right to be present at any test or inspection conducted under this Section 8.4.
