Accounted Flare Gas 
The Accounted Flare Gas quantities are calculated as follows:  
Accounted Flare Gas quantities = (A* B) - C- D - E - F - G, 
where: 
A= Associated Gas Production quantities (metered or accounted)  
B= 1 - Shrinkage Factor 
C= Own Consumption quantities (metered or accounted) 
D= Gas for Existing Offtake Commitments (metered)  
E= Liquids extracted from Associated Gas (if metered or 
accounted for)  
F= Flare Gas delivered to Third Party Flare Commercialisation 
Projects (metered)  
G= Flare Gas delivered for Producer’s Approved Flare Out Projects 
(metered).   
 
During the Transition Period, the Accounted Flare Gas quantity 
will be used as the basis for calculating the Flare Payment 
Amount.
