Abstract: Oil and gas are being produced from deeper and hignnr pressure reservoirs. Some producing gas wells have shut-in pressures around 15,000 pounds per square inch. The production from these deeper zones renuiros that gas be measured at increasing high pressures. In some cases, the economic studies prove thnt gas should be measured as the full well stream at high pressure before final separatioii. Most companies measure the gas from individual producing wells and commingle these streams to a central separation facility. This type of gas mrasurement is not as accurate as dry and lower prossure measurement. Therefore, this measurement is used for allocation and is nearly always adjusted to some lower pressure master meter or meters. Another type of high pressure gas measurement is required due to the injection of gas into the deep oil zones in order to maintain the reservoir pressures at efficient production levels. This injection gas measurement has been found to have many inaccuracies and is also used for allocation and adjusted to lower pressure master meters.
