The American School of Gas Measurement Technology (ASGMT) has never turned its back on change since its founding in 1966. Instead, it has consistently embraced progress and pursued new ways to strengthen our industry and support the development of our students. This year is no exception. After 25 years at our previous venue, ASGMT has proudly relocated to The Woodlands Waterway Marriott Hotel and Conference Center. This move underscores our continued commitment to remaining at the forefront of industry evolution and delivering the highest‑quality experience for our students and the broader measurement community.
Natural Gas has no innate odor, color, or taste; therefore, odorization is one of the most important aspects to safely transporting natural gas to customers in a distribution system. As demand for natural gas rises as does the technology involved in odorization.
In the day-to-day operations of measurement systems, fiscal measurement accuracy remains critical to pipeline profitability, as vested parties require assurance of the exact quantity and quality of the transferred material.
The need to be able to take a representative sample of a hydrocarbon product is necessary to ensure proper accounting for transactions and efficient product processing. The various sampling methods that are available and the options and limitations of these methods are investigated
Pulse interpolation, by definition, is the ability to estimate values of (a function) between two known values. Therefore, pulse interpolation enables pulse counts to be made to a fraction of a pulse, thus greatly reducing the rounding – off errors that occur when pulse counts are made to the nearest whole number; which always happens …

Electromagnetic flow meters possess the ability to deliver real time diagnostic data regarding meter health and flow processes. Using the onboard diagnostics can help an individual trend fluid quality and measurement accuracy by understanding each KPI and how it correlates to a known standard.
Thermal Oxidizer in the gas industry is primary used for the destruction of fugitive emissions for EPA Toxic Release Inventories Gases (TRI), Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC), Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAP), benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, xylenes. (BTEX) and methane (Natural Gas). These gases are regulated by the EPA, TCEQ and AQMD for compliance with regard to gases …

Natural Gas Liquid (NGL) streams consist of mixtures of hydrocarbons including ethane, propane, butane, pentane and natural gasoline. NGL is sometimes referred to as y grade. The American Petroleum Institute (API) Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS) Chapter 14 Section 7 provides guidance on the mass measurement of NGL.
Over the past 30 years, gas ultrasonic meters have transitioned from the engineering lab to wide commercial
use as the primary device of choice to measure gas volume for custody transfer accounting. Wide acceptance
and use by gas pipeline companies has occurred during this time due to the device’s
This paper discusses fundamental principles of ultrasonic gas flow meters used for measurement of natural gas and the available basic diagnostic capability to assess meter operation and performance.
Gas chromatography is one of the most widely used techniques for analyzing hydrocarbon mixtures. Some of the
advantages of chromatography are the range of measurement (from ppm levels up to 100%), the detection of a wide
range of components, and the repeatability of the measurements
ASGMT is dedicated to training, education, and creating a better future through the people who learn from us. As the largest gas measurement school in the United States, we are devoted to natural gas measurement, pressure regulation, flow control, and other measurement related arenas.
