Abstract: Turbine meters have been used for the measurement of petroleum liquids since the 1950s. In March 1970 with the publication of API Standard 2534 Measurement of Liquid Hydrocarbons by Turbine Meter Systems turbine meters gained custody transfer acceptance in oil and gas industry of liquids such as light crude oils, LPGs, and light distillates. Nearly 50 years later, turbine meter technology continues to be used globally for a variety of applications: custody transfer, allocation, leak detection, and other loss gain control applications. New developments in liquid turbine technology have not only expanded the range of installation applications, but have also improved the reliability and accuracy of the method of interpreting the produced data. This paper will examine the fundamentals of liquid turbine meter technology as well as new mechanical and technological developments which are expanding the turbine meter installation base.
