Abstract: Flow measurement standards are not creating the metering contest. It is the accumulation and subsequent computation of data that causes the difficulties. The authors definition of the metering contest is the fact that flows measured in the gas industry are used for different purposes. It is accepted practice to use one set of instrumentation for measurement for billing purposes, and a second set for telemetering for operating or dispatching purposes. The problem is compounded when the customer adds his instrumentation to the system. As an example of defining the metering contest, a recent visit to a major gas companys sales station disclosed the following metering instrumentation: The transmission company utilized two 16- meter tubes with round chart recorders for measurement, and a second set of instrumentation for telemetering.
