Pour Point Clause Samples

The Pour Point clause defines the lowest temperature at which a liquid, typically a petroleum product, will flow under specified conditions. In practice, this clause sets a minimum standard for the pour point value that delivered products must meet, ensuring that fuels or oils remain usable in colder environments. By establishing this requirement, the clause helps prevent operational issues caused by products solidifying or becoming too viscous at low temperatures, thereby ensuring reliability and safety in storage and transportation.

Pour Point. The pour point of a fuel is the temperature at which it will barely flow under standard conditions, and it is significant in connection with fuels that may require heating to make them pumpable and with fuels fed to a pump by gravity flow. Petroleum oils when cooled may change to a plastic state as a result of partial separation of wax (wax pour) or by congealing of hydrocarbons (viscous pour) comprising the oil. A waxy fuel must be maintained at a high enough temperature to ensure that all of the wax is in solution to prevent wax crystals from clogging filters and lines. For distillates, wax separation can usually be avoided by heating the fuel to at least 20-30(Degree)F (11-17(Degree)C) above the pour point. Waxy crude oils used as fuels may require even higher temperature differentials. Each type of waxy fuel must be evaluated individually for minimum wax solution temperature. (For methods, refer to page C2.)

  • Crane Erection & Jumping (a) Cranes and man/material hoists may be erected, altered, climbed and dismantled during times when ordinary production works are in progress subject to the work being done in full compliance with a relevant operational safety zone (OSZ) plan which has been developed specifically for that operation with consideration to overall site safety. (b) The crane crew for each tower crane (Crane Crew) must consist of the following: (i) crane driver; and (ii) three (3) dogmen. (c) In addition to the appropriate tickets held by the crane driver and the dogmen, the following high risk licences must be held amongst the Crane Crew: (i) rigging; and (ii) material handling. (d) Where a Project consists of a single Crane Crew, the Employer should endeavour to ensure another member of the Crane Crew holds a crane driver licence.

  • Gas If Customer has selected a Gas Fixed Rate, Customer’s Price will be based on the Fixed Rate(s), plus the Administration Charge, set forth in the Application, which includes RITERATE ENERGY’s compressor fuel and transportation charges, administrative and transaction costs and the Gas Balancing Amount and any Regulatory Charges (defined below).

  • Wet Weather In the event of wet weather, work in the open will continue until the particular work in hand can no longer be done safely and efficiently. Whilst it is raining, employees will be required to: Continue to work under cover or relocate to alternative work under cover, on site. Obtain materials and services for employees working under cover where there is only minimal exposure to inclement weather. When required, perform emergency and safety work. In addition, work on unexpected breakdowns, which can be corrected in limited time duration. Should a portion of the project be affected by wet weather, all other employees not so affected shall continue working in accordance with award conditions, regardless that some employees may be entitled to cease work due to wet weather. If a halt to productive work occurs due to inclement weather, the parties agree that employees may be relocated to other unaffected sites. Where the above steps are not possible, affected employees may be required to attend tool box meetings, work planning sessions or skills development activities, all of which will count as productive time for payment purposes.
