SAMPLING AND ANALYSES Sample Clauses

SAMPLING AND ANALYSES. A recognized independent laboratory ("Independent Lab"), experienced in the sampling and analyzing of coal, shall be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Sales Agent/Producer, and shall be engaged by each Party to perform the sampling and analysis of all coal shipped hereunder. Independent Lab shall sample shipments at the Operations, located near Drennen, West Virginia. The Independent Lab shall perform its sampling and analysis in accordance with standards approved by the American Society for Testing and Materials ("ASTM"). The Independent Laboratory shall divide the sampled material into four (4) sample splits identified as follows: (a) Laboratory analyses, (b) Referee split, (c) Seller's split and (d) Buyer's split. The Independent Laboratory shall provide upon request the sample splits to Buyer and/or Seller as soon as the sample is prepared. A proximate and grind analysis shall be done by the Independent Lab for each shipment. Except as hereinafter provided the results of the sampling and analyses by the Independent Lab with respect to samples taken from any shipment shall be accepted as the quality and characteristics of that shipment. The cost of the Independent Lab's services for such sampling and analyzing of the coal in each shipment shall be paid for by the Buyer and the Seller equally. Buyer shall have the right to have a representative present at any and all times to observe the sampling, inspect the Independent Lab and take check samples at the Operations, and Buyer may also analyze the coal either from its own samples or from samples taken by Independent Lab. The Independent Lab shall retain for a period of 60 days the Referee split coal sample taken so that Buyer and/or Seller or a commercial laboratory of their choice may analyze such sample. If the Buyer or Seller should question the correctness of the analyses made by the Independent Laboratory, they may, within 30 days after the train's unloading, notify the other Party in writing to request that the Referee split be analyzed by a second mutually agreeable Independent Laboratory. This notification should specify which analytical parameter or parameters are in dispute. The Independent Laboratory shall provide the Referee Laboratory with the properly identified sealed sample. The integrity of the moisture in reserve samples is the most difficult to preserve. Therefore, if the moisture value is in dispute, the governing result will be the higher of the values reported by the Independent and ...

SAMPLING AND ANALYSES. Calculations shall be based on Monthly samples of the Entrants’ Crude Petroleum. The content of Off Gases shall, however, be based on synthetic assays made as part of the Allocation Procedure. The sampling frequency shall be Monthly according to the Agreement and may be altered if agreed by Producers and Other Producers. However, where such sampling frequency is not Monthly then sampling shall revert to a Monthly frequency if a change or expected change of an Entrant’s Crude Petroleum is estimated to have an impact on the GPW of that Entrant’s resulting Allocated Crude Oil. The costs of sampling and analysis of the Entrants’ Crude Petroleum shall be paid by Transporter to be included in the Pipeline Costs. The samples shall be analysed by a mutually agreed single accredited independent laboratory and measurements made in accordance with Exhibit B, Measurements, Tests and Sampling, to the Agreement. The new sample properties shall be applied from the Month in which the sample analysis is applicable in accordance with Appendix 2. If a sample is destroyed or in other way not representative for the Month, the analysis of the sample of the previous Month shall be applied for the Month.
SAMPLING AND ANALYSES. Two recognized Independent Laboratories experienced in the sampling and analyzing of coal, shall be mutually agreed upon by Buyer and Seller as the Labs of Record. One of these laboratories shall be engaged by each Party to perform the sampling, sample preparation, and analysis of the coal shipped hereunder. The other laboratory at the option of either the Buyer or the Seller shall perform analyses of the prepared splits from the sublot and composite samples. At least one of the Labs of Record shall utilize the High Temperature Combustion Method with Infrared Absorption Detection Procedures (ASTM D4239 Method C) for determination of sulfur in samples of coal. During the loading of the rail cars, barges, or ship, sample increments shall be collected by the most reliable, practical and mutually agreeable procedures in accordance with either ASTM D2234 (manual) or D4702 (mechanical). The frequency and mass of the increments shall be in accordance with ASTM standards. For all water deliveries, the cargo shall be divided into 5,000 MT sublots. The preparation of each sublot sample shall yield the following four mesh sample splits: a) laboratory analyses, b) referee split and c) Buyer's split. A 60 mesh split of the sublots shall be prepared for the second laboratory as well as an 8 mesh split of the composite sample. The Buyer or Buyer's Agent shall have access to witness all sampling, sample preparation, screen testing and sealing of samples. The Independent Lab shall provide upon request the splits of the sublot samples to the Buyer or Buyer's Agent and/or Seller as soon as the sample is prepared. The Labs of Record shall properly identify, seal, and retain the referee splits of each sublot sample for a period of 60 days so that the Buyer or Seller may analyze such samples. The Buyer's Agent will be permitted to place a suitable seal on Referee samples.
