Abstract: There are many different ways to measure natural gas however, the type of load, pressure, and volume will usually limit the applicable measurement means. Under normal or base conditions, the most common meter used in gas distribution activities will be a positive displacement meter with a standard index. When the index is read month after month, the volume used will be the difference of two consecutive readings. In many cases It is desirable to measure gas at higher pressures than at the base pressure or where pressure fluctuations will affect the volume of gas being measured. We know from the basic gas laws that a convenient calculation will compensate for pressure and temperature variations and adjust the volume to base conditions. For positive displacement and turbine meters the relation is as shown below:
