Abstract: The ultimate objective of Gas Measurement isthe determination of gas quantities, Two of the most desirable features in any method of quantity determination are repeatability and accuracy. Another desirable feature would be the ability to rfieasure directly the quantities desired in the units desired. In our business it is not always practical, economical, or even possible to measure large natural gas volumes directly. Therefore, in our discussion we will utilize inferential measurement. The most common type of inferential or rate of flow measurement used today in the natural gas industry worldwide is the orifice meter. The orifice measurement principle has been around since Caesars time in the Roman Empire to measure water to households. One of the oldest applications of this concept is a timing device, the hour glass.
