Flow Metering Clause Samples
The FLOW METERING clause establishes the requirements and procedures for measuring the quantity of fluid—such as water, oil, or gas—passing through a system. It typically specifies the type of metering equipment to be used, calibration standards, and responsibilities for installation, maintenance, and data recording. For example, it may require the use of certified flow meters and regular verification of their accuracy. The core function of this clause is to ensure accurate and reliable measurement of flow, which is essential for billing, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency.
Flow Metering. The custody measurement station shall be designed, operated, tested, and maintained and the mass of hydrocarbon streams calculated in accordance with the latest edition of Gas Processors Association ("GPA") Standard 8182 and the appropriate parts of the American Petroleum Institute Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (hereinafter referred to as "MPMS"). The custody measurement station will, in Dynegy's sole discretion, be comprised of: a coriolis meter, composite sampler and microprocessor; or a turbine meter, densitometer, composite sampler and microprocessor; or an orifice meter, densitometer, composite sampler and microprocessor.
Flow Metering. Each measurement station shall be operated, tested, and maintained and the mass of hydrocarbon streams calculated in accordance with standard industry practices.
Flow Metering. 1. Unless [insert name of satellite municipality] already has flow metering satisfactory to Memphis to assure reliable measurement of flows originating or transmitted through the [insert name of satellite municipality] sewers to the Memphis WCTS, within 180 days of the effective date of this Agreement (or such other time as Memphis may agree to based upon demonstrated need), [insert name of satellite municipality] shall install such flow meters, subject to Memphis’ approval, as are necessary to measure peak and other flows originating or transmitted through the [insert name of satellite municipality] sewers to the Memphis WCTS. Subject to Memphis’ discretion, the flow meters shall be capable of reporting flows volume by hour or such other time period as Memphis deems appropriate. The flow meters shall be installed at the expense of [insert name of satellite municipality].
2. At least once every six months, the metering stations as provided for in paragraph I.F.1, above, shall be calibrated both hydraulically and electronically by a qualified commercial entity approved by the [insert name of satellite municipality] and Memphis at the expense of [insert name of satellite municipality]. In the event a meter fails to accurately measure flow to reasonable engineering standards for three out of twelve consecutive months, [insert name of satellite municipality] shall replace it promptly, at its own expense, upon written request from Memphis.
3. [Insert name of satellite municipality] agrees to make available all flow metering data to Memphis within thirty (30) calendar days of Memphis’ request.
4. [Insert name of satellite municipality] agrees that the meters shall be available to Memphis for inspection at all times.
Flow Metering. The custody measurement station will be comprised of a turbine meter, densitometer, composite sampler and microprocessor.
Flow Metering. The custody measurement station will, in Dynegy's sole discretion, be comprised of:
1. A coriolis meter, composite sampler and microprocessor; or
2. A turbine meter, densitometer, composite sampler and microprocessor, or
3. An orifice meter, densitometer, composite sampler and microprocessor, or
4. An orifice meter, on-line gas chromatograph and microprocessor with an in-situ master turbine meter station for proving and calibration of the orifice meter.
Flow Metering. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Water require a flowmeter to be provided on all Type 3 & 4 pumping stations. The flowmeter shall:
Flow Metering. A flow meter shall be installed per City Standards. In addition, the Pump Station Equipment shall be upgraded as follows:
Flow Metering. 1. ENGINEER will work with the CLIENT’s flow metering contractor and City staff to prepare a flow monitoring plan that covers the collection system for the purpose of evaluating infiltration and inflow rates and to support InfoSWMM modeling tasks. CLIENT will coordinate the flow monitoring program to provide data in 15-minute intervals for a period of 12 weeks. ENGINEER will review metering data, on a monthly basis, or after large rain events approaching or exceeding a 1-year, 24-hour rain event, throughout the program to confirm appropriate storm events have been captured during the metering period. If it is determined that appropriate storm events (target is two storms approaching or exceeding 2.62 inches in 24-hours), CLIENT will extend metering period to capture appropriate storms.
2. ENGINEER will provide one representative to be present during flow meter site scouting prior to flow meter installation.
1. ENGINEER will review and summarize collected flow meter data after the flow metering task is completed, and summarize smoke testing activities and results, along with applicable photos, within a summary technical memorandum of findings.
