Abstract: N.V. Nederlandse Gasunie is the major gas transmission company in the Netherlands. In 1998 the company sold 79.8 billion m3 natural gas. From this amount of gas 43.4 billion m3 was sold in the domestic market and 36.4 billion m3 was exported to other European co untries. To deliver the gas to its customers Gasunie operates an extensive gas transmission grid, with 11389 kilometres of transmission lines, 8 compressor stations, 75 regulator stations, 15 export stations and 1114 city gate stations in the domestic market. Starting in 2001, Russian gas will flow via Poland and Germany to the Netherlands. The gas will enter the Dutch transmission system at the existing Oude Statenzijl export station in the northern part of the country. Importing gas via a station that has been designed as an export station is a new phenomenon for Gasunie and a redesign of the existing station is necessary. Gasunie Research was approached with the instruction to work out and test a proposal for a bi-directional flow measurement concept based on ultrasonic gas meters. In this paper an overview of the work executed so far will be presented, together with results of experimental work that has been done at Gasunies high pressure, high flow Bernoulli laboratory at Westerbork, the Netherlands.
