The changes to the Master Gas Metering Package are documented in design change notices (DCN) 25027-001-M6N-DK-00152, 25027-001-M6N-DK-00183, and 25027-001-M6N-DK-00195. In pertinent part, the changes include the following:
1) Foundation changed from a concrete table-top to a structural steel platform;
2) Additional flow computer added and the number of flow meters increased from 3 to 4;
3) On/off piping valves added;
5) Two tie-ins for future meters added;
4) Piping tie-in for Phase 2 scope added;
6) On/off valve relocated; and
7) Pipe spools added for future valves.
