Flow Measurement and Custody Transfer in Oil & Gas Course

Introduction:

As petroleum and crude oil are valuable and critical raw and processed resources, it is essential that flow calculations for such transactions adhere to stringent regional authority standards. The use of technology, particularly in flow measurement, is crucial across various industries, including oil, power, chemicals, food, water, and waste treatment.

Typical flow measurement devices in processing plants can measure transmission flows with an accuracy of less than 1%. A measurement error of this magnitude can potentially result in annual losses of several million dollars due to operational inconsistencies. Therefore, these industries require precise and reproducible measurements of the fluids—whether gas, liquid, or steam—passing through specific checkpoints.

In this Flow Measurement and Custody Transfer in Oil & Gas training, participants will gain comprehensive knowledge about custody transfer, flow measurement definitions, types, and their relevance to the strategic and tactical goals of the organization. The course aims to enable participants to appreciate the interrelationship between the organization’s activities and its financial performance, addressing logical challenges related to financial transaction measuring techniques, production allocation, and custody transfer.
