Abstract: This paper reviews NI-Gas efforts in the prevention and detection of gas energy theft. Our on-going meter and swivel seal programs are discussed and two special projects to evaluate the effectiveness of seals are described. In the seventies, NI-Gas, like the rest of the industry, reahzed that we were vulnerable to large-scale, premeditated theft. There had been no concerted efforts to secure our facilities. Our accidental discoveries were not pursued with the idea of criminal or civil prosecution. Our attitude was, bill conservatively and avoid aggravating the customer. Inspection of meters in the field was limited to the larger installations -mostly those with special regulation or instrumentation. Smaller meters were only scrutinized in the meter shop after a meter exchange/removal and then we only effectively proved the bellows and test hand drive.
