Overview
Accurate measurement of produced hydrocarbons has always been a very high priority for oil and gas operating companies. To satisfy this requirement, stringent requirements are set for the various calculations that are adopted to define the quantity and quality of the fluids being measured. There are numerous standards which define these parameters and this one-day course explains the commonly used equations and standards by detailing the source of the calculations, the parameters used, the required inputs/outputs and their effect on the uncertainty of measurement.
Objective
This course provides for the delegates an introduction into the importance of and the requirements for the calculations and standards applied on orifice gas metering systems and liquid turbine metering systems. The course covers:
- Appropriate ISO, AGA and API standards
- Their background and application
- Gas calculations including corrections
- Liquid calculations including corrections
- Sources of error
Who Should Attend
Delegates who require a basic understanding of measurement system calculations, their role and Effect in the measurement process, such as Metering Technicians & Engineers, Research and Development Engineers, Instrumentation Engineers, Quality Managers, Technical Managers, Metering System Designers. The course is intensive, to make effective use of delegates’ time.
