Abstract: In todays automated society where machines do what people once did by hand, most people have forgotten how to hand calculate an orifice meter chart. Companies now have chart averagers, analyzers and electro scanners to provide the flow extension, pressure index and time Index. We also have data bases coded with constants into which we key variables to produce machine calculated volumes and reports. I will discuss the procedure used by El Paso Natural Gas Company to hand calculate an orifice meter chart from scratch. References are Gas Measurement Committee Report #3 as revised (AGA 3) and Manual for the Determination of Supercompressibillty Factors of Natural Gas (NX-19).
