Abstract: This paper will discuss the testing and proving of automatic sampling systems in crude oil service in accordance with the American Petroleum Institute (API) Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS), Chapter 8, Section 2, Appendix A and the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) D-4177. An automatic sampling system can be tested to verify the equipment, installation and operational procedures that produce a representative sample of shipments or batches. The test is called a sampling system proving test. The purpose is to validate the entire sampling system, including the analysis of the sample. This paper is about the testing, proving, and certification of automatic sampling systems in crude oil and other hydrocarbon service. This test, in various forms, is also applicable for petroleum products as well as blending systems.
