Abstract: A large majority of the oil gathered in this nation is collected from small lease sites that populate the oil rich regions that many of us call home. These lease tanks are a common site, and we often overlook their importance. While our industry has raced forward by adding technology and electronic systems, this one sector has remained steadfast. It should be noted that the modern technologies are seriously being looked at by many companies due to a new API standard written and published last year. The new standard is Chapter 18.2 of the American Petroleum Institutes Manual of Petroleum Measurement. The title is Custody Transfer of Crude Oil from Lease Tanks Using Alternate Measurement Methods. The aim to remove the gauger from the top of a tank when hazardous conditions exist, such as H2S (hydrogen sulfide), which is a deadly natural nerve agent.
