Flow Calculation Verification

At SOLV® we are often challenged by users regarding perceived calculation errors when comparing software results against flow computers.
A New Approach to MPFM Performance

A process facility nearby had the capability to process Heavy Oil fluids and export through to a common pipeline with an existing LACT unit
Flow Measurement Uncertainty Assessment

Flow is a derived measurement that is invariably obtained from a number of measurements with a functional relationship that must be taken into account when analysing the measurement uncertainty.

Determination of Measurement Uncertainty for the Purpose of Wet Gas Hydrocarbon Allocation
Wet Gas Uncertainty Based Allocation

The use of measurement uncertainty in the allocation of oil and gas is gaining interest in the industry.
This so-called Uncertainty-Based-Allocation (UBA) utilizes the relative uncertainties of reference
meters and allocation meters.
A New Approach to MPFM Performance Assessment in Heavy Oil

The performance of a MPFM (Multi Phase Flow Meter) is normally assessed with an observational data model obtained by comparison with a reference meter.
Production Allocation Deployment from Concept to Operation

Over the past 30 years, the nature of oil and gas field developments has changed from a single operator with a dedicated pipeline, to multiple fields each with differing ownerships, and multiple product streams, processed in a common plant.
Production Allocation Deployment- from Concept to Operation

The facility design will fundamentally accommodate the metering systems required to transfer fiscal custody, and to allocate volumes (mass), and operating costs associated with the products streams
Multi Phase Flow Measurement

Two studies examined the measurement of Heavy Oil with a venturi based multi phase flow meter and dual energy gamma phase sensor (VDG*) for a 3rd party entrant to an existing production facility. The oil standard volume allocation uncertainty was required for regulatory approval and allocation tariffs:
