GENERAL TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SERVICE
(Continued)
6. BILLING
6.1 Billing under all Rate Schedules: On or before the ninth (9th)
Business Day of each month, NBP shall render a bill to each Shipper
under all applicable Rate Schedules for the service(s) rendered
during the preceding month, which is in accordance with NAESB
Standard 3.3.14, Version 1.8, which provides that the imbalance
statement should be rendered prior to or with the invoice, and the
transportation invoice should be prepared on or before the ninth
business day after the end of the production month. Rendered is
defined as postmarked, time-stamped, and delivered to the designated
site.
6.2 Information for preparation of the bill: In the event that NBP does
not have the Receipt Quantities, the Shipper promises to furnish
NBP with all of the information and the material that the latter
requires to calculate and verify the Receipt and Delivery
Quantities.
If NBP does not receive said information in sufficient time to be
able to bill the Shipper as provided for in this Paragraph, said
invoices shall be calculated based on the best estimate realized by
NBP of the Delivery Quantity provided by the Shipper. Any excess
or insufficient charges resulting from the differences between the
aforementioned estimates and the real amounts shall be adjusted on
the subsequent bill without any interest thereon.
6.3 Third Party Charges. Shipper shall be responsible for delivering
all gas to, and accepting redelivery of all Gas from, Transporter's
system, and shall be free to contract with third party(ies)
upstream or downstream of Transporter's system to achieve such
result. If Shipper requests, and Transporter agrees, Transporter
will contract with third party(ies) for the benefit of Shipper and
Shipper shall pay Transporter an amount equal to the charges
Transporter is obligated to pay such third party(ies), which
charges may include, but are not limited to, reservation and/or
usage charges and surcharges, fuel charges, compression fees,
balancing or storage fees, measurement fees, processing fees,
and/or facility charges. Such charges shall be set forth as
separate items on billings rendered to Shipper.
