OPERATIONS OF ON-LINE CHROMATOGRAPHS On-line Chromatography has at least two definitions today. The most common is that the Chromatograph, commonly known as a “GC,” is “on-line” when it extracts a sample from a continuously flowing line, injects this sample and analyzes it for composition, and then perhaps calculates BTU, SG, Relative Density, and/or Wobbe index or other parameters. This…

TECHNIQUES OF COMPOSITE SAMPLING Natural gas is sampled to balance plant or gathering systems and to determine its quality for custody transfer applications. Many contracts are written in such a manner to account for the quality of the gas. The quality of the gas is determined by the energy contained in it, which is measured in British Thermal Units…

FUNDAMENTALS OF ULTRASONIC FLOW METERS This paper presents an outline of the operating principal and application of ultrasonic gas flow metering for custody transfer. Basic principles and underlying equations are discussed as are considerations for applying ultrasonic flow meter technology to station design, installation and operation. These applications are illustrated based on operating experience with the Instromet 3 path and…

FUNDAMENTALS OF CORIOLIS METERS (FOR GAS MEASUREMENT Coriolis meters have gained worldwide acceptance in liquid applications since the early 1980’s with an installed base or more than 350,000 units. Newer designs have shown greatly improved low-flow sensitivity, lower pressure drop, and immunity to noise; factors which now enable their successful use in gas-phase fluid applications. With more than 20,000 units on gas…

FUNDAMENTALS OF GAS LAWS In the gas industry a standard unit of measure is required. In the English system it is the standard cubic foot. In the metric, it is the standard cubic meter. This standard unit is the basis of all exchange in the gas industry. When the unit of purchase is the energy content (BTU) we achieve…

REQUIREMENTS OF AN EGM EDITOR The natural gas industry has adopted EGM as a means of increasing the speed and accuracy with which measurement information is obtained. This has created the need for an electronic data management system. These systems, if not properly designed and implemented, could potentially render the entire process useless. Therefore, it is essential that the system…
