ULTRASONIC METER FLOW CALIBRATIONS CONSIDERATIONS AND BENEFITS The primary method for custody transfer measurement has traditionally been orifice metering. While this method has been a good form of measurement, technology has driven the demand for a new, more effective form of fiscal measurement. Ultrasonic flowmeters have gained popularity in recent years and have become the standard for large volume custody transfer applications…

LESSONS LEARNED FROM THE API CHAPTER 14.1 GAS SAMPLING PROJECT: AN OVERVIEW OF COMMON CAUSES OF GAS SAMPLE DISTORTION AND INFORMATION NEEDED FOR PROPER GAS SAMPLING Over the past seven years, the Gas Technology Institute (GTI), the American Petroleum Institute (API) and the United States Minerals Management Service (MMS), have co-sponsored an extensive natural gas sampling methods research program at the GTI Metering Research Facility (MRF), located at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI). The results of this research provided a basis for…

PULSATION REDUCTION BY ACOUSTIC FILTERS FOR METERING APPLICATIONS Because of the adverse effects of pulsations on orifice and other types of flow meters there is for many installations, a need to eliminate or decrease the amplitude of pulsations in the piping. This task has been the primary domain of acoustical piping designers who have had both theoretical and practical field experience in such…

PULSATION EFFECTS ON ORIFICE METERING CONSIDERING PRIMARY AND SECONDARY ELEMENTS The use of orifices for commercial flow measurement has a long history dating back more than 50 years. Orifices are extensively used in the United States natural gas, petroleum and petro-chemical industries and are important as one of the most practical ways to meter large volumes of gas flow. These meters are very reliable and…

OVERALL MEASUREMENT ACCURACY — DETERMINATION AND INFLUENCE This paper presents methods for determining the uncertainty of both differential and positive metering stations. It takes into account the type of meter, number of meters in parallel, type of secondary instruments, and the determination of physical properties. The paper then relates this information to potential influence on system balance

PROBLEMS UNIQUE TO OFFSHORE MEASUREMENT As the worldwide demand for oil and gas forces offshore exploration into waters off the continental shelves into depths of over a mile deep, capital expense spending (CapEx) and production operation expense (OpEx) budgets are slashed and the Environmental Health and Safety (EH&S) requirements as well as some companies’ goals for a ‘greener image’ raises…

FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLES OF ROTARY DISPLACEMENT METERS Natural gas measurement today is accomplished through the use of two different classes of gas meters. These are inferential type meters, which include orifice and turbine meters, and positive displacement meters, which include diaphragm and rotary displacement meters. The inferential type meters are so-called because rather than measuring the actual volume of gas passing through…

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON MEASUREMENT THE IMPACT OF MEASUREMENT IN A CHANGING BUSINESS ENVIRONMENT The measurement of hydrocarbons has evolved significantly through the years, from both a technical and business application perspective. Developments and advances in technology have made the measurement of hydrocarbons more precise, efficient and available. Changes in the energy business environment have placed the measurement of hydrocarbons into a more significant role within organizational and industry…
