The recent boom in natural gas production has led to an increased need for gas compression infrastructure, including meter stations that can transport larger volumes of gas at higher velocities and pressures. When improperly designed, these meter stations may create poor conditions for accurate flow measurement. Among the factors that should be considered when developing a meter station are the static pressure environment (for pulsation minimization), the flow distribution between multiple meter runs, the velocity profile development and the mechanical vibration levels in the installed equipment. Measurement accuracy can be improved through the understanding of the influence of these factors on various meter types and by identifying and mitigating potential sources. Field case studies of different types of problems experienced at meter stations will be used to demonstrate the effects of poor meter station design. This paper will summarize guidelines and best practices for a robust meter station design to minimize the likelihood of metering errors.
