Five things you need to apply

https://pqp.economiles.com/
  1. Was these partner flights on 016 ticket stock or not? going to presume they were not
  2. What is the carrier -- preferred or not?
  3. What is the fare class?
  4. What is the flight distance?
  5. What is the cabin cap?

The first SQ flight, non-preferred partner, economy cabin 3,856*1/6 ==> 643 but capped at 500 PQP
The first LH flight, preferred partner, premium economy cabin , 3,870*1/5 ==> 774 but capped at 750
The second LH flight, preferred partner, did not cap out for business and was 3,870*1/5 ==> 774

Partner flights on non-016 tickets are mileage based, all 016 tickets and UA flights regardless of ticket stock are fare based
