Abstract: In the immediate future, as well as in the long range, we here in the United States are going to see international actions having an ever increasing impact on gas measurement. Our American industry measurement practices have been accused of being provincial and resistant to change, yet change we must. Like our national automotive and heavy industries, we are in danger of being passed by. And, like those industries, the actions of others are not always in our best interest. Recognition of this concern has accelerated measurement research and development here in the United States. Changes are occurring, but we are just beginning to feel the impact of this effort. Future changes will be occurring at an even more accelerated rate! If we go back to the days of manufactured gas, the meter man was concerned with how many gas lights you had and the true test of the accuracy of the large positive displacement plant meters was the amount of system unaccounted for. Each gas company was self contained from production to utilization. Not totally unlike the medieval cities of the 1200s, each gas company literally operated within a set of walls.
