Micron operating from their well established laboratory in Birmingham
offer a comprehensive range of certification services to users of flow
measurement devices employing orifice plates, Venturi tubes & nozzles.
Good oil field practice & the statutory requirements of the regulatory
authorities dictates that orifice plates when employed as primary elements
in "fiscal" metering systems should be certified for compliance
with the appropriate design standard prior to use.
It is also an industry led requirement that for high accuracy fluid measurements
in closed conduits the primary elements should be periodically re-certified
against the appropriate standard. In the case of "fiscal" or
custody transfer metering applications this is typically ever 12 months.
Highly trained metrologists operating through our UKAS accredited laboratory
in Birmingham will carry out all the metrology & visual inspections
necessary to confirm compliance of a primary element, such as an orifice
plate, With the requirements of the appropriate design or operational
standard ie ISO 5167, AGA 3 etc.
