Year Published: 2018
Abstract: This paper will overview the most recent advancements in prover technology. Since their introduction to the liquid petroleum custody transfer market twenty years ago, Small Volume Provers (SVP), aka Unidirectional Captive Displacement Provers (UCDP), have been making continuous improvements regarding technology upgrades, expanded performance capabilities, and breadth of services and benefits offered. Information will be presented that demonstrates the ability to prove large bore meters with Not So Small Small Volume Provers. Also provided is a technology comparison of SVP versus conventional (older) prover technologies. This data shows that todays newer technology is not only an acceptable choice for proving large bore meters, but offers performance enhancements and economic advantages. Industry myths surrounding SVPs will be addressed and dispelled.
