Contracts permit requirements

The responsibility for obtaining permits, required filings, and rights to review permits should be noted in the contract. Both parties are expected to be in compliance with all laws and permits applicable to the tolling operation.

Check whether there is a formal system for waste disposal. Is off-site waste disposal covered by contract or letter of agreement that specifies the mode of disposal, liabilities and responsibilities Is waste disposed on-site covered by permits as required by applicable legislation ... 

Gas sales contracts for natural gases will limit the concentration of acid compounds. In the United States, typically, gas sates contracts will permit up to 2 to 3% carbon dioxide and 4 grain per 100 scf (approximately 4 ppm) of hydrogen sulfide. The actual requirement for any sales contract nia> vary, depending upon negotiations between seller and purchaser. 

Elimination of one tubesheet reduces initial cost. Tube bundle is removable for inspection and cleaning. Full tube bundle minimizes shell-side bypassing. U-bends permit each tube to expand and contract individually. Tube bundle expansion is independent of shell no expansion diaphragm is required. 

The international standard ISO 9001 2000 specifies quality system requirements for use where a contract between the company and customers requires demonstration of the capability to design and supply the product in compliance with the applicable regulatory requirements and customer satisfaction. The contents of the adopted standard refer to design, manufacture, and final product inspection and testing. No exclusions permitted. 

The Directive establishes a number of rules intended to promote competition and market integration. The most important provision is the so-called third party access to the pipeline system. This means that the pipeline owner has an obligation to contract in respect to a third party wishing to transport gas. The consequence of this is that the pipeline owner cannot by the power of ownership decide who shall be permitted to use the transport facilities. Third party access makes possible increased competition among gas sellers and opens up the market for transport services. Another important aspect of the Directive is the requirement for unbundling of accounts between the various gas-related operations in integrated undertakings. 

Time constraints imposed by transport of test material to the test site that may involve permits from either the CDC or USDA, or other national requirements when test material or the contract laboratory is located outside of the United States. 

This is less a comment about compressor design and more a comment about the design of the sweetening unit. However, we have seen that the power required to compress a gas steam is directly proportional to the flow rate. Thus anything that can be done to reduce the flow of acid gas will have a direct impact on the compressor power. One amine design that has become quite popular is COz slip - allowing some of the COz to remain in the sweet gas stream. The MDEA-based solvents are design to permit some COz slip. Typical gas contracts allow for approximately 2% COz in the sweet gas. 

Ensure that contracts with consultants, services providers, and other third parties require compliance with the company s record policies and permit periodic audits.
