Abstract: There has been a trend in the industry toward larger ultrasonic meters for the transfer of oil in large pipelines and for offloading facilities such as FPSOs. There also has been some active debate on the best method of calibrating these meters for use in these applications. At present there are two methods normally used to accomplish this. The more traditional method is the use of a pipe or piston prover, either permanent or mobile, at the site. The second method is to calibrate the meter at a laboratory and transfer that calibration to the field. This paper explores the expected uncertainty and some pitfalls to be avoided in system design to ensure the best performance of both systems.
