Flow Measurement Pressure-Temperature Compensation
Peer-to-peer knowledge sharing provides valuable information beyond what is possible to find in owners' manuals and other technical documentation from suppliers. You can find it every day in your Google searches about personal technologies that you use and...
How to Rotate a Coriolis Flow and Density Meter Transmitter Display
When measuring the flow of a liquid, gas or slurry, Coriolis flow and density meter sensors will work in any installed orientation as long as the flow tubes remain full of process fluid. The preferred orientation, when this is not the case, is shown in this...
Managing Alarms on Micro Motion 1700 and 2700 Transmitters
For most people trying to learn how to do something new, showing tops reading. This is why short videos in YouTube and other video services continue to grow in popularity compared with long, step-by-step written procedures. Here on the blog, I have a growing list of...
On-Site Flow Meter Calibration Demonstration
Last week, I did a quick post at the Emerson Exchange conference in Brussels on performing on-site flow meter calibrations. I wanted to follow up with a quick, just over 2-minute video featuring Emerson's Johan Enters demonstrating the equipment and services used to...
Integrated Oil and Gas Well Testing
Testing the composition oil, gas and produced water and basic sediment from oil & gas wells has traditionally required test separators. For offshore platforms and onshore well pads with multiple wells, this has meant complex manifolds and valves to route the...
Tips to Overcome Challenges in Product and Custody Transfers
Author: Sachin Tere Product and custody transfer applications are spread across the oil and gas industry, from the fields to the refineries, to transport vessels to storage tanks and terminals. Here are some problems that hinder you from achieving efficiency in fluid...
Lease Automatic Custody Transfer Components and Operation
The exchange of crude oil between seller and buyer is known as custody transfer. A simple example of this is the gas pump where you fill up your car. The pump must accurately measure the fuel and determine/collect payment for the amount transferred into your gas tank....
Calculating Fluid Density Changes in Foundation Fieldbus Devices
I received this question on density measurement and wanted to share what I found out. I understand all dP flow measurements are affected by the density of the fluid (liquid or gas) flowing through orifice, annubar, pitot tube, etc. Most dP measurements in process...
Repeating Golden Batch Production
For batch-based processes, the "golden batch" is term often used to describe the ideal batch against which all other batches are compared. In a Control magazine article, Data Analytics in Batch Operations, it is defined: …as the time-based profile of the measurement...
How to Perform Internal Flow Simulations on Vortex Flowmeters
Let's close this busy week with a look at how internal flow simulations in the Rosemount 8800D Vortex flowmeter help to provide health checks for these measurement devices. In these two videos, Emerson's Lourdes Recio shows you step-by-step how to perform a health...
Marine Fuel Consumption Measurement
While I'm traveling through Asia this week, I'll keep this post short by highlighting a new animated YouTube video (3:09) on Marine Fuel Consumption Measurement using Micro Motion mass flow and density measurement technology. The Micro Motion Fuel Consumption Solution...
