Abstract: The following will cover a review of sample conditioning components available in todays market that will meet the intent of the American Petroleum Institutes Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards, Chapter 14, Section 1 and GPA 2166-05 standard. This will be discussed in several segments removing a gas sample from a pipeline, preparing that sample and reducing the pressure in preparation for delivery to an analyzer for analysis of heating value, moisture content, H2S content, hydrocarbon dew point, etc. During this discussion various methods will be reviewed of how not to treat a gas sample and methods of how to prepare a gas sample, thereby ensuring the analytical device will provide a true reading of the gas in the pipeline. Please remember once a gas sample has been removed from a pipeline incorrectly, (due to an improperly designed and/or installed sample system) the gas composition once altered will not correct itself during transportation to the analytical device. A bad sample ends as a bad analysis.
