One prominent application area is the oil and gas industry, where vortex flow meters are used to measure the flow of crude oil, natural gas and refined products. In addition, vortex flow meters are widely used in the chemical industry to monitor the flow of ...
Magnetic flow meters (EMFs) and vortex flow meters are both widely used for flow measurement, but they operate on different principles and are suited for different applications. ...
It is a fact of the industry that oil and gas companies are required, by various rules and regulations, to routinely perform gas sampling to establish gas composition, flow rates and gas properties. ...
For gas wells alone, the EPA estimates that the cost of compliance will rise to $754 million per year by 2015.1 Given the immense number of flares that are to be regulated, there is a need for more cost-effective mass flow measurement technologies. Multi-path ultrasonic flow meters have been widely used for flare gas measurement, but they are ...
Given the immense number of flares that are to be regulated, there is a need for more cost effective mass flow measurement technologies. Multi path ultrasonic flow meters have been widely used for flare gas measurement, but they are extremely expensive and have marked limitations. To comply with regulations, oil and gas companies ...
This practice is referred to as the ‘cappuccino’ effect due to the fuel aeration and, in large bunker deliveries, such practice could result in considerable financial loss and a potential bunker dispute. Standard volumetric type fuel flow meters will not detect a shortfall as they measure the volume of throughput including entrapped air. To counter ...
It is primarily for use with higher-viscosity fluids, such as the flow metering of oils, syrups and fuels. Liquids of a lesser viscosity can be subject to fluid slippage, giving a less accurate measurement. What is a Positive Displacement flow meter? The Flowpet 5G is an example of one of Oval’s ...
Thermal mass flow meters are also gaining ground as a reliable and accurate direct mass flow measurement of flare and combustor gas. ...

Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell has proposed to update 30-year-old regulations in order to reduce the excess release of natural gas into the atmosphere from oil and gas operations on public and American Indian lands. Thermal mass flow meters help oil and gas companies comply with EPA emissions regulations. ...
For years Petrobakken Energy Ltd. used inline turbine flow meters to track the flow rate of oil recycled to treaters. But with a high concentration of wax and sand in the oil, the turbine meters were quickly plugging off. ...
To comply with regulations, oil and gas companies need new flow meter alternatives that are accurate, durable, reliable and economical. ...
