Common use of Associated Natural Gas Clause in Contracts

Associated Natural Gas. 21.2.1. In the event of a commercial discovery of Crude Oil, the Contractor shall specify in the report indicated in article 11.3.3 whether the production of Associated Natural Gas (after processing said Associated Natural Gas in order to separate the Hydrocarbons that may be considered as Crude Oil pursuant to articles 16.2 and 16.3) is likely to exceed the quantities necessary for the needs of the Petroleum Operations relating to the production of Crude Oil (including the reinjection operations), and whether it believes that this surplus is likely to be produced in commercial quantities. In the event that the Contractor has notified the Government of such surplus, the Parties shall jointly evaluate the possible outlets for this surplus Associated Natural Gas, both on the local market and for export (including the possibility of jointly selling their shares of production of this surplus Associated Natural Gas in the event that this surplus is not otherwise commercially producible), as well as the means necessary for sale.
