Exploring The Possibilities Of Using Ultrasonic Gas Flow Meters In Wet Gas Applications
Author(s): Eric Bras
Abstract/Introduction:
The Intention of the presentation is to review recent testing carried out on an Elster Instromet Ultrasonic Gas Meter that has been placed in a wet gas environment. The review will look at experience gained from CEESI testing in 2010, ongoing In house testing and DNV GL testing in 2014. Finally we will look at the overall progress and consider if this type of meter can offer a robust solution in this type of environment in the future

Installation Effects In Ultrasonic Gas Flowmeters
Author(s): Hilko Den Hollander
Abstract/Introduction:
Flow conditioner of meter B produced ultrasonic noise at flowrates 2200 m3/h. Flow conditioner modified to reduce noise production. After modification less noise and only starting at 2450 m3/h. Modifications caused flow profile of meter B to be slightly asymmetric. Noise production by flow conditioner occasionally happens and is a typical case of bad luck

Efficient diagnostics the right information to the right user at the right time Operations Tell me when the meter is not working correctly Tell me when the process gets out of control , e.g. pulsation, 2 phases. Maintenance Does a device require maintenance , e.g. repair, calibration, cleaning ? How urgent is the matter? Can it wait until the next planned visit ? What is the issue ? Which tools and parts do I need to bring with me ? Engineering Is the overall measurement uncertainty within specification or not ?

Ultrasonic And DP Meter Responses To Wet Natural Gas Flow
Author(s): Richard Steven Charlie Britton Josh Kinney
Abstract/Introduction:
Ultrasonic and DP Meter Responses to Wet Natural Gas Flow Richard Steven - CEESI Ultrasonic and DP Meter Responses to Wet Natural Gas Flow Richard Steven, Charlie Britton & Josh Kinney DP meters are extensively used with wet gas flows. Ultrasonic meters are being promoted as a viable alternative to DP meters in wet gas applications. Lets discuss the known wet gas performance of Venturi, orifice and ultrasonic meters in terms of: The gas flow rate prediction bias & published correction factors, & The meters relative abilities to register wet gas & monitor the liquid loading.
