In upstream oil & gas production, flow measurements are critical for determining the health and longevity of the producing and injection wells. Many technologies such as multiphase flow meters and differential pressure (DP) measurements can be used. In a...
Springtime here in the Northern hemisphere means lots of industry and professional organization events. This week I've highlighted happenings from the pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing industry at Interphex 2019. Also going on this week is a gathering of...
At the recent Emerson Exchange conference in San Antonio, Emerson's Laura Chemler developed a presentation with a Chief Technology Officer at a brewing company to share how data from flow meters helped produce the highest quality beer. This CTO is obsessed with...
Selecting the right flowmeter is an expert panel session at the 2018 Emerson Exchange conference. The panel included Emerson's Trever Ball, Karl Stappert, Dan Hackett, Jeff Foster, and Steve Ifft. Types of flow measurement devices in the panel discussion include...
The energy derived from crude oil has powered the advancement of civilizations across the globe. Getting this energy into usable forms such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel is the work refineries must do safely, reliably and efficiently every day. In a Hydrocarbon...
In many parts of the world, technologies to open shale formations for oil and gas production have yielded vast quantities of natural gas. The liquefaction process makes it practical to ship liquefied natural gas (LNG) across the globe. In a SmartBrief article,...
Every three years, the World Gas Conference convenes. It is: …the most important global gas industry gathering of influential leaders, policy-makers, buyers, sellers and experts. Emerson's Marc Buttler will present at this year's conference, June 25-29 in Washington...
Yesterday, we looked at calibration of Coriolis mass flow meters in natural gas applications and mentioned piecewise linearization (PWL), but did not delve into it. Let's do with today's post. I found a presentation by Emerson's Tonya Wyatt, Fine Tuning Coriolis Flow...
In this 27-minute YouTube presentation video, Custody Transfer Measurement and Calibration Round Robin Testing for Natural Gas with Coriolis Meter, Emerson's Marc Buttler explains Coriolis meter calibration process and Piece Wise Linearization (PWL). His discussion...
Consider the flow path of oil & gas production from the well head. The first stop is typically the production separator where the oil, gas, condensation, water, brine and other fluids and sediment get separated. Traditionally, for multi-well sites, there is a test...
We often discuss aspects of some of the basic measurements in process control—flow, temperature, pressure, level, etc. Some other very important measurements in applications such as custody transfer, liquid interface detection, blending, separating, evaporating and...
The production areas of many process manufacturing facilities can sometimes seem deafening. Some of this noise may be attributed to excessive vibration surround equipment such as control valves, piping and instrumentation. Emerson's Adin Mann and Shawn Anderson have...
