Notes

In exceptional cases and for a time interval that does not exceed two (2) hours; the content of Natural Gas in Hydrogen sulfide can have a value up to 10.8 mg/Nm3, without however exceeding 6.5 mg/Nm3 as an average Daily value. In exceptional cases and for a time period that does not exceed 48 hours it can receive values up to 120 mg/Nm3 without however exceeding 90 Mg/Nm3 as an average Weekly value. Under reference pressure of 80 barg. Under any pressure from 1 to 80 barg. Natural Gas should be practically free from gaseous, solid or liquid substances that could pose blockage or malfunction or erosion risks to standard gas facilities and standardized gas equipment. Exception is made to the cases of liquid formation of minuscule droplets in Natural Gas which are impossible to be removed. The Natural Gas is delivered at the Entry Points without odorizing substance. The Odorizing Substance is added at the Exit Points, when necessary as per the ASME Code. Under special NNGTS operation conditions or due to technical reasons and in any case for periods that do not exceed 4 hours; the temperature may be less than 0C. In this case, Natural Gas temperature must necessarily be greater than -10C and at least 5C higher than the WDP temperature of Natural Gas under operating pressure.
