Abstract: In the natural gas measurement industry, it is very common for companies to routinely witness or watch another company verify and/or calibrate a custody transfer gas meter. Witnessing another companys technician inspect their primary measuring device, secondary measurement equipment and tertiary equipment calculations is something that is often overlooked as routine and has historically lacked an emphasis on importance. If you look around your everyday world, there are a multitude of meters measuring commodities that are verified for accuracy on a regular basis. This verification may be required by a contract to buy or sell, a contract to ship or gather, state or federal agencys regulatory branches, or a gentlemans agreement. Each agreement is in place as a means to protect the interest of each respective party whether that is of a large company or the general public. As an agent for the company and responsible for implementing company standards around verifying metering points where large volumes of energy change hands on a daily basis, it is in the technicians best interest to insure these metering points are measuring correctly.
