Basics of Ascertaining Effective Pressure and Temperature Measurement Measurements of pressure and temperature are made for many reasons and by several methods. This paper will focus on measurements made during gas production and transportation and suggests criteria to be used in the selection and installation of the instruments used to measure these physical properties. In this industry, pressure and temperature measurements are primarily…

ELECTRONIC GAS MEASUREMENT AUDITING Electronic gas measurement auditing or EFM auditing is a very important process in the natural gas industry. Within the last twenty years, the natural gas industry has changed from the dry flow chart recorder to the Electronic flow Computer(EFM) as the primary method of recording the measurement data for custody transfer. These flow computers are…

APPLICATION IN LIQUID MEASUREMENT USING CLAMP-ON ULTRASONIC TECHNOLOGY Clamp on ultrasonic flow meter technology (COUSMT) offers the advantage of providing a non-custody transfer, non-intrusive method to obtain the pipe flow rate. The distinct advantage of the technology is; there is no need to present access to the fluid flowing in the pipe. The method is quite robust and simple to implement. More and…

VERIFYING GAS CHROMATOGRAPHS AT CUSTODY TRANSFER LOCATIONS Chromatography is one of the most widely used means of performing chemical analyses in the world. Russian botanist Mikhail Tswett is credited with discovering the technique of chromatography. Using alcohol as a mobile phase and chalk as a stationary phase, Tswett was able to separate various plant extracts. Figure 1. Example of Tswett’s Experiment Figure…

ULTRASONIC METERS FOR 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. Ultrasonic meters use sound waves to measure flowing gas velocity to infer volume. Ultrasonic meters have been around for many years, primarily in liquid measurement. However,…

AMI FOR GAS UTILITIES There was once a time when you could get a car in any color…as long as it was black. They had frames, running boards and 15 horsepower engines. Who could ever need more? Just like the auto industry has adapted from this original approach to meet the demands of consumers, regulators and shareholders, the gas…

EFFECTIVE LEADERSHIP AT ALL LEVELS We study Engineering, Accounting, Business Management, Computer Science and a host of other curriculums on our way to employment. Technical schools teach us Ohm’s Law, Fundamental Physics, Chemistry, Electronics and Welding. Courses and complete degree programs in Leadership are available but for some reason, Effective Leadership is rarely taught in the disciplines found in our…

ODORANT LEAK MANAGEMENT All around the world, propane, butane and natural gas must be odorized. The odorization ensures a safe transport, distribution and use of this valuable energy to residential buildings. Regulations vary from one country or state to another. The natural gas can be odorized at different points of the gas grid: in some countries (France, Spain,…

METER SELECTION FOR VARIOUS LOAD REQUIREMENTS This paper is intended to provide meter station designers with a basic methodology for selection of an appropriate flow meter (or meters) for a given application. Since many applications require that a meter station operate over a broad range of flow rates or loads, an example is provided on how to address system rangeability while…
