§3174.12. Measurement tickets.
43 C.F.R. § 3174.12
Tank gauging. After oil is measured by tank gauging under §§ 3174.5 and 3174.6 of this subpart, the operator, purchaser, or transporter, as appropriate, must complete a uniquely numbered measurement ticket, in either paper or electronic format, with the following information:
Lease, unit PA, or CA number;
Unique tank number and nominal tank capacity;
Opening and closing dates and times;
Opening and closing gauges and observed temperatures in °F;
Observed volume for opening and closing gauge, using tank specific calibration charts (see § 3174.5(c));
Total gross standard volume removed from the tank following API 11.1 (incorporated by reference, see § 3174.3);
Observed API oil gravity and temperature in °F;
API oil gravity at 60 °F, following API 11.1 (incorporated by reference, see § 3174.3);
S&W content percent;
Unique number of each seal removed and installed;
Name of the individual performing the tank gauging; and
Name of the operator.
LACT system and CMS.
At the beginning of every month, and, unless the operator is using a flow computer under § 3174.10, before conducting proving operations on a LACT system, the operator, purchaser, or transporter, as appropriate, must complete a uniquely numbered measurement ticket, in either paper or electronic format, with the following information:
Lease, unit PA, or CA number;
Unique meter ID number;
Opening and closing dates;
Opening and closing totalizer readings of the indicated volume;
Meter factor, indicating if it is a composite meter factor;
Total gross standard volume removed through the LACT system or CMS;
API oil gravity. For API oil gravity determined from a composite sample, the observed API oil gravity and temperature must be indicated in °F and the API oil gravity must be indicated at 60 °F. For API oil gravity determined from average density (CMS only), the average uncorrected density must be determined by the CMS;
The average temperature in °F;
The average flowing pressure in psig;
S&W content percent;
Unique number of each seal removed and installed;
Name of the purchaser's representative; and
Name of the operator.
Any accumulators used in the determination of average pressure, average temperature, and average density must be reset to zero whenever a new measurement ticket is opened.
