In a Process Instrumentation article, Trusted measurements help ensure performance, part 1, Emerson’s Mark Menezes shares examples of how measurements, “…can be robustly designed to provide ‘good enough’ performance when operating outside of expected process and environmental limits.”
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.
Dean Minehart highlights an Ethylene Pipeline Measurement via Coriolis Flow Meter whitepaper to help improve ethylene production and transportation safety, reliability and efficiency.
In a Hydrocarbon Processing article, Leveraging modern flow technologies to improve safety in refineries, Emerson’s Meha Jha and Julie Valentine describe how advancements in these flow measurements, “…enhance safety and improve uptime, flexibility and efficiency, while securing their competitive position in a dynamic market.”
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.
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....
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
