Over the last century and more, a few industries have developed large-scale integrated production and distribution systems, covering the span from source to final consumer. Oil and gas are the most obvious, covering all aspects of industrial, commercial, and consumer...
The Rosemount470XA Gas Chromatograph is a compact, economical, and reliable solution that simplifies natural gas analysis in fiscal and custody transfer applications.
Over many years working with end users who are trying to solve challenging flow measurement problems, I’ve often suggested that a Coriolis mass flow meter is exactly the technology solution needed, but in some cases an alternative is preferred for a variety of...
By applying today’s improved hardware and software to process instrumentation, it is possible to collect enormous amounts of diagnostic data, providing insight into the instrument itself, but also the process in which it is installed. How this works with ultrasonic...
Martin McDonough shares some of the key measurements and technologies for accurate mass balance calculations for use in chemical plant losses and production accounting.
In a Process Instrumentation magazine article, Emerson’s Lonna Dickenson explains how ultrasonic flow meters have the specific capabilities and accuracy required for custody transfer.
At the upcoming October 24-28 Emerson Exchange conference, Emerson’s Karl White will be joined by a gas producer in the Western United States to share their success story on applying Rosemount measurement technology to improve their capital project and ongoing operational costs. Jim Cahill caught up with Karl to get a preview of what they’ll discuss in this podcast.
Gas metering systems are the cash registers for custody transfer between companies. At the Emerson Exchange Americas Virtual Series, Emerson’s Juan Najera shares some best practices in designing and operating these gas metering systems.
Emerson’s Marc Buttler discussed the verification process for Coriolis flow meters using methods such as master meters, proving, lab calibration and secondary verification diagnostics at the Emerson Exchange Americas Virtual Series.
Emerson’s Karl Stappert presents Smart Meters and Prover Technology Advancements Reduce Uncertainty at the Emerson Exchange Americas Virtual Series.
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.
For oil & gas well pads not connected to pipelines, custody transfer of the produced oil and produced water occurs via truck transport. The trucks load oil from holding tanks and require accurate measurements for the custody transfer from producer. Similarly, this...
