This is a shout out for the IEM. My Technical Division will be having a talk on Wed, 6th October, 2012. It’ll be at 5:30 pm at Wisma IEM. Note that no CPD points will be awarded, but I think the talk is important enough for you to attend.
Measurement is an important part of the oil and gas industry. The industry focus has mainly been on improving safety and optimizing production, but without accurate and credible measurement, there will be an unacceptable level of uncertainty in the amount being produced. This uncertainty may translate to commercial disputes, or improper management of available reserves.
This presentation will provide an introduction to measurement. The session will be broken down as follows:
Part 1: Introduction to Measurement (approximately one hour)
Part 2: Why Measurement is Important (approximately one hour)
The presentations are part of TUV NEL’s ‘Free Flow Measurement Training’ series.
Gilbert has worked in the Engineering Industry since 1966 progressively developing a career path, which included a Managing Directorship in a specialised Flow Measurement Consultancy Company. The majority of his career has been concentrated in the area of flow measurement, allocation, sampling and analysis in the Oil and Gas Industry. His current role is developing a Flow Consultancy business for TÜV NEL in the Asia Pacific Region.
Chris is a flow measurement consultant at NEL in Glasgow, Scotland who specialises in the oil & gas industry. He has approximately 5 years experience at NEL and works predominately on consultancy for the oil & gas industry. Chris has in depth knowledge of flow measurement technologies, allocation and measurement uncertainty. Chris has been the technical lead on several high value projects during his time at NEL. Chris’s knowledge and expertise were exploited in the NEL led Joint industry Project researching measurement techniques for high viscosity fluids. He was also responsible for the modification to the NEL oil flow facility to incorporate high viscosity fluids up to 1500 cSt. He has presented technical papers on flow measurement at several conferences around the world, including Calgary, Kuala Lumpur, London and Oslo. He has also represented NEL at the Energy Institute HMC-1 meetings and been part of the Oil & Gas Focus Group steering committee.
