Abstract: The hydrocarbon industry represents a unique part of the process industry in that it supplies much of the energy and raw feed stock used in many other processes. Historically, vast volumes of crude oil had to be drawn from all corners of the earth, transported, refined and delivered to consumers and other industries. Therefore, exact standards of accuracy had to be established and flow meters were developed to provide highly accurate custody transfer of these products. Premium grades of positive displacement meters and turbine meters are now widely used on crude and refined product measurement because of their potential for highly accurate flow measurement: typically 0.15% linearity over a 10:1 turndown with 0.02% repeatability at constant operating conditions. While many hydrocarbon measurements are for well defined fluids at near constant conditions, other fluids may vary widely from product or process variables. For these latter applications, Coriolis Mass Meters may be highly desirable.
