Abstract: Orifice meters are extensively used as an economically attractive option for upstream unprocessed natural gas flow metering applications. Unprocessed flows are often wet gas flows. Wet gas flow is an extremely adverse flow condition for all gas meter designs. However, in recent years it has been shown that the orifice meter has a relatively good wet gas performance (e.g. Steven et al 1). ISOs TR 12748 2 gives a comprehensive 2 to 4 orifice meter multiphase wet gas flow correction. Of all the gas meter designs available the orifice meter is the only one to have a multiphase wet gas flow correction published by a standards board. Also, the DP Diagnostics orifice meter verification system has been shown to be capable of monitoring both the health of the DP readings and changes in a wet gas flows liquid loading (e.g. Rabone 3).
