Abstract: New metering technologies offer many advantages over the traditional orifice flow meter. Despite the advantages, gas companies must consider the cost of upgrading an existing meter station before installing a new flow meter technology. Often times, the cost associated with an orifice meter replacement involves the cost of the new flow meter, as well as the associated cost of fabricating new meter runs, calibrating the meter and installing the meter and related instrumentation. Because these costs may not be justifiable at all meter stations, U.S. gas companies still rely on orifice flow meter measurement throughout the majority of their pipeline systems.
