Proving Coriolis Flow Measurement for Wellhead Produced Liquids
Emerson’s Justin Hollingsworth shared a story of a Bakken shale region oil & gas producer test on the viability of using Coriolis flow meter technology at the wellhead to measure produced liquids. The Flow Control article, Wellhead flowmeter pilot test on the Bakken Formation, highlights the rigorous testing process to prove the robustness and accuracy of this technology for this challenging measurement application.
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.
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.
Mass Balance Food and Beverage Processes
In this short, 2:28 YouTube video, How to Optimize Dairy Operations & Eliminate Product Waste, Emerson’s Tom Belling describes how these reductions can be achieved. He opens noting that product losses of 1-2% per day are typical.
Answers to Coriolis Meter Drive Gain Diagnostic Questions
In an earlier post, How Coriolis Meter Drive Gain Indication Works, Emerson’s Marc Buttler addressed questions on how the Micro Motion Coriolis meter drive gain diagnostic is calculated. We received two additional questions.
Process Diagnostics for Oil and Gas Separators
With advances in operational analytics, smart instruments and the applications they feed can now help identify problems in the process early in order to maintain optimum performance levels. I caught up with Emerson’s Drew Baker in the Permian Basin Service Center to share some onshore oil & gas production examples with me.
Environmental Reporting Digital Transformation
Meha Jha described how environmental reporting is being digitally transformed at the 2020 4C HSE conference. Typical flow measurements for compliance reporting need to be verified every year to every few years based on the local regulations. Traditionally this...
Production Accounting and Mass Balance Performance Management
Reliable, accurate flow measurements are at the heart of excellence in production accounting and mass balances for chemical and hydrocarbon processing facilities. Key performance indicators (KPIs) are only as good as the data that feeds them. Next Tuesday, February 18...
