USE OF EQUATIONS OF STATE (EOS) SOFTWARE It also includes the removal of contaminates which may alter the sample composition and/or damage the analyzer. It is imperative that the gas sample composition is not altered or distorted during the conditioning process. Equations of State (EOS) software programs are useful tools for modeling the behavior of natural gas as it flows through a…

UNDERSTANDING THE DIFFERENT STANDARDS THAT GOVERN MEASUREMENT The measurement of natural gas and those associated with the measurement of natural gas are in a unique situation. Many companies are practicing gas measurement using AGA 1985, AGA 1992 (Revision) or a latest standard. The AGA 1992 (Revision) was slow to be accepted as the latest standard. Many companies could not make the separation…

ULTRASONIC METER FLOW CALIBRATION 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…

METER SELECTION FOR VARIOUS LOAD REQUIREMENTS Gas meters have become known as the “CASH REGISTER” of the natural gas industry. With today’s competitive energy markets and the environment of FERC Order 636, natural gas measurement has become an increasingly important issue. It is therefore the duty of measurement departments to select equipment and design installations that are both efficient and economical
