  • AUTHOR: George E. Brown III

FIELD INSPECTION AND CALIBRATION OF MEASUREMENT INSTRUMENTS Timely, diligent field testing and calibration of gas volume recording and correcting instruments ensure that measurement information fairly represents actual volumes. The instruments save a company capitol and operating costs because they can record or integrate volumes at pressures and temperature above the normal pressurebase conditions specified in contracts for volume calculation. This allows the…

CALIBRATION STANDARD GASES Calibration standard gases are essential to quantitative analytical measurements in petrochemical processes, natural gas, environmental compliance, and health and safety programs – among others. The calibration gas standard establishes a known analyzer response to a certified chemical component concentration which enables the conversion of sample responses to a concentration with a determinable accuracy. In consideration…

FLOW CONDITIONING – A TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH UPDATED Inferential meters, such as orifice, turbine and ultrasonic meters, infer fluid flow based on an observed meter output combined with a number of fluid flow assumptions. Optimal flow conditions lead to optimal meter performance and in some cases “fully developed turbulent pipeline flow” is used to describe these optimal flow conditions. Unfortunately, the length of…

TECHNIQUES OF NATURAL GAS COMPOSITE SAMPLING Energy companies focused on natural gas production, gathering, transmission, or distribution are ultimately valued on their ability to produce or deliver natural gas to its customers. Pressure and temperature measurement provides data that is required to quantify natural gas flow rates while natural gas sampling provides the heat content, or energy value, associated with this…

ULTRASONIC METERS FOR RESIDENTIAL AND COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS An ultrasonic meter falls into the classification of inferential meters. Unlike positive displacement meters that capture volume to totalize volume, inferential meters measure flowing gas velocity to totalize volume. Orifice meters use pressure drop to measure velocity to infer volume and turbine meters use the speed of the rotor to measure velocity to infer volume,…

H2S DETECTION AND DETERMINATION Hydrogen Sulfide (H2S) is a gas composed of one Sulfur Atom and two Hydrogen Atoms. H2S is formed by the decomposition of organic matter and is therefore, found naturally in crude oil and natural gas deposits. H2S is a highly toxic, transparent, colorless and corrosive gas. Due to the toxic and caustic properties of this…

ADVANCES IN NATURAL GAS SAMPLING TECHNOLOGY The monetary value of natural gas is based on its energy content and volume. The energy content and physical constants utilized in determining its volume are computed from analysis. Therefore correct assessment of the value of natural gas is dependent to a large extent on overall analytical accuracy. The largest source of analytical error in…

OPERATIONS OF ONLINE CHROMATOGRAPHS Gas Chromatographs have become vitally important in today’s gas industry for one very important reason. The reason is they provide the data that tells us how much energy in contained in a given sample of gas. With the escalating costs of natural gas, the capability of calculating the full energy of the gas sample has…

VERIFYING GAS CHROMATOGRAPHS AT CUSTODY TRANSFER LOCATIONS Verifying the correct operation and accuracy of the Gas Chromatograph (GC) is an integral part of a custody transfer metering system, and involves ensuring the accuracy of the analyzer at the time of testing, as well as confirming that the GC performed properly during the periods between validations and assessing the likelihood of continued proper…
