Abstract: Reasons to upgrade chart recorders to Electronic Flow Measurement (EFM) is a discussion that has been ongoing for years. In the early years EFMs were limited in their capabilities and the cost was high so companies were slow in accepting them. Being able to see measurement and pipeline pressures remotely was needed but the technology wasnt there yet. Today the EFMs can provide a vast array of information, accurately and timely at a reduced cost. Many companies have already switched to EFMs but there are several companies that havent made the jump yet especially producers. There are several factors to consider when making the decision to switch from chart recorders to EFMs. This discussion will explain the benefits of having remote access to meters and production equipment. There is a cost to removing chart recorders and installing EFMs with communications but the benefits can easily outweigh the expense. Listed below are the areas that will be discussed concerning these benefits
