There are many types of metering systems available in the market depending on the types of product to be metered ie.either oil or gas and the choice of technology being applied. As the metering system involves the measurement of the hydrocarbon product, which is directly translated into the amount of money involved, everyone has a great interest in the metering system accuracy. The operator will ensure that the specification will be thoroughly reviewed by the expert prior to issuing to the supplier, and the supplier or manufacturer on the other hand will ensure that the system will meet the most stringent requirements in term of its accuracy. This paper will discuss about the commonly observed measurement accuracy of any type of metering systems and to examine whether the contributing factors can be addressed and accepted by all parties. Should the issue still persist than there must be a way to avoid any dispute and the measurement results can be recognised as the acceptable basis for business deal.
