Abstract: The primary consideration in the design of a metering station is subtained accuracy. The station should be designed so as to require a minimum of piping alterations should the capacity requirements change, as most metering stations are likely to be in service for a long time. Whether for measurement from gas wells, a field, or on major transmission or distribution systems, the life of the station may be unlimited. The meter station is the key to accurate billing, therefore many particulars must be considered in order to provide this much desired accuracy. The primary element of the meter station is the orifice plate, the orifice plate holding device, and the adjacent pipe sections. Flow through the pipe reaches the orifice plate and passes through the restricted bore. The differential between the pressures on the two sides of the orifice plate varies with the volume of flow and thus provides an accurate indication of the flow volume
