Post subject: Oil crude + gas flow measurement
Dear Sirs,
I'm searching for the best technology solution for flow measurement of crude oil that contains gas mixed. I usually use positive displacement and turbine instruments when gas are involved is not so accuracy. Also the instrument can damage sometimes.
Thank you in advance for your help,
LACV

Hello Lacv2k,
The Ultrasonic meter will only tolerate up to a max of 5% entrained gas, after that it is a problem for Transit Time or TOF time of flight ultrasonic. It would be a big problem for a turbine meter. Normally you would have a gas or air eliminator before the meter to remove the entrained gas.
