Abstract: More and more everyday the accounting of natural gas is being done by electronics. Its ability to sense, calculate and store information will some day dominate in our industry. But until that day comes, we have work to do with charts, pens, and inks. There is no doubt in this writers mind that electronic measurement wil1 be better overal1 than our current method wi th the charts. The electronics industry is working hard to duplicate the permanent record aspect of the chart, some times called, audit trail. Companies involved in a dispute over measurement need only to pul1 the chart from a storage file and look at it to solve most measurement disagreements. The quality of the recording is vital to accurate measurement. For instance, suppose the most up-to-date equipment and techniques are employed at a flow station and for some reason the ink pen fai1s to record static pressure, differential pressure, or both. It will be necessary to estimate the volume. This papers purpose is to give aid to those who want to know more about charts, pens and inks and help stop estimating volumes.
