Custody transfer of natural gas

After production and processing, natural gas is sold to transporters who bring the product to market. Because of the very large volumes involved, pipelines operating at high pressures are used. Measurements must be provided at custody transfer points in accordance to international standards. Such large volumes translate to enormous amounts of money and even a small error can mean huge losses in revenue. SICK’s new gas flow meter FLOWSIC600-XT, available with eight measurement paths, is certified to deliver the highest rated fiscal gas metering accuracy (Class 0.5) per OIML testing.
