The Untapped Potential in Your Multiphase Flow Meter: Remote Connectivity and Performance Monitoring
The Roxar 2600 Multiphase Flow Meter is an enormous upgrade from the typical test separator system in unconventional oil. We’ve talked about the operational benefits of making the switch to MPFMs, but would you believe there are even more untapped advantages to using...
4 Exciting Enhancements to the Micro Motion F-Series Coriolis Flow and Density Meters
Over the past year, our Micro Motion F-Series Coriolis Flow Meters have experienced a series of exciting updates. This family of compact, versatile flow meters provides highly accurate mass flow, volume flow, and density measurements in a wide variety of line sizes....
Calibrating Flow Meters On-Site Saves Time, Reduces Costs and Minimises Process Downtime
An alternative to shipping flow meters to a flow service centre is to have the testing and calibration performed on-site. Some automation technology vendors provide mobile flow calibration units, which will visit sites on arranged dates to perform the service.
Calibrating Fiscal Transfer Measurements with Master Meter Provers
Accuracy of fiscal transfer measurement is of great importance as even a small error in measurement can lead to a large financial difference. Provers ensure a fiscal transfer system is providing the most accurate measurement possible. They provide a stationary or mobile means to facilitate calibration of flow meters before, during or after a transfer.
Coriolis Flow Meters for High Accuracy Refining Applications
In a Processing article, Controlling critical refining applications with Coriolis meters, Emerson’s Julie Valentine and Meha Jha share specific applications where Coriolis flow measurement provides opportunities for better control and more reliable operations.
Uncertainty in Your Process Unit Mass Balance: What it’s Costing You and How to Improve it
At the process unit level, the mass balance is particularly important, as the charge and yield measurement streams serve as the basis for operational decision-making. When imbalances occur, process unit engineers can’t optimize their units with confidence. The good...
6 Operational Benefits of Multiphase Flow Meters in Unconventional Oil Production
The needs of unconventional oil production are uniquely complex and require contemporary solutions to maximize the efficiency and safety of operations. Shale oil production is made possible by the advanced technology of cutting-edge wellhead monitoring and metering...
