Abstract: Since a gas sampling system can be referred to as a cash register it is very important that the correct sampling method be selected and the appropriate industry standard be followed. Methods reviewed by this paper will include spot sampling, composite sampling, and on-line chromatography. In addition, Gas Processors Association (GPA) 2166-86 and American Petroleum Institute (API) 14.1 will be described. Natural gas is sampled to determine quality for custody transfer applications, balance a plant process, or gathering system. In the late 1970s most natural gas custody transfer contracts used gas volume (MCF) for the units of measure. In 1978 Congress passed the Natural Gas Policy Act in an attempt to deregulate the natural gas industry.
