Abstract: Orifice meter measurement with a chart recorder has been a standard in the petroleum industry for years. The orifice meter consists of the plate and tube (primary element), and the recorder (secondary element). It has been popular for years because the meter is a simple device which requires minimal maintenance and can accurately measure a wide range of flow rates. Orifice meter measurements can affect sales, reservoir engineering, production allocation, gas allowables, royalties, and, ultimately, your paycheck. Therefore, it is important that the meter be routinely tested to ensure sustained accuracy. The frequency of the meter test is dictated by company policy, contract, or whrai the meter is thought to be in error. Most companies test their meters monthly or quarterly, depending upon the volume of gas measured.
