Definition of Custody flow metering systems (FMS)
• Flow Metering is the DYNAMIC custody measurement of fluid flow –

rate, and/or batch quantity
• Note: Tank Gauging is the STATIC counterpart of the above
• Units of flow may be MASS or VOLUME per unit time
• A Fluid Management Solution (FMS) is a complete system

• Meters, pressure & temperature, valve arrangements, computer control,
reporting, security, calculations, guaranteed uncertainty (accuracy)

Definition of custody transfer metering applications
• A system may be called:

• Custody transfer (sometimes called Fiscal or Royalty standard)
• Inventory measurement (or Allocation metering)
• Custody metering is homogeneous, steady, single phase flow

• These examples are NOT custody standard:
• Wet gas or Multiphase fluids
• Unstabilised oil with gas bubbles
• Water in oil mixtures
• Dusty gas or sandy oil
• Pulsating or slug flow

These are NOT custody metering….
• These are all views into the (glass) pipe to see the actual fluid flow
Bubble flow – gas in oil Annular flow – liquid along

pipe wall
Slug flow – gas then liquid
And mixed flow regimes

Standards and regulation for custody transfer metering

Slide 12 08/06/2014 Ngo

Standards & Regulations
• An FMS metering system does not have to comply to a International

standard, to be called FMS. It depends on the country and the
application.
• Calling a system ‘Royalty’ or ‘Custody’ or ‘Fiscal’ standard, does not
always specify a particular accuracy of measurement. More information is
needed.
• Here are some examples of codes & standards you may see:
EU: OIML R117-1 (liquids) R137-1 (gases) MID-005 (EU 2004/22/EC)

USA: API MPMS UK: DECC (DTi) Guidelines
Saudi Arabia: Saudi Aramco Standards Brazil: ANP Guidelines
Norway: NPD Guidelines Russia: GOST
Iran: IPS Vietnam: TVCN Guidelines
↙
Slide 13 08/06/2014 Ngo
Custody Transfer Standards
• European Market: OIML R117 and MID-005

• American Market: API MPMS Chapter 5 Section 6

↙
Slide 28 08/06/2014 Ngo
Ball prover
• The procedure involves a plastic sphere being inflated with water

to create a close fit inside a pipe ‘loop’. This is then pushed along
by the oil flow in series with the meter under test and passes
‘sphere detectors’ mounted in the pipe wall which initiate a timer
with the start and finish of an accurately calibrated internal
volume.

Why does the client have chosen Coriolis technology?
• No inlet/outlet sections  easier pipe and skid design

• No moving parts  which results in much lower maintenance and
recalibration costs
• Premium accuracy  less losses due to higher accurate billing
• No pipeline support required  easier pipe and skid design
• Master meter possibility  main meters can be proven by same
technology

Slide 48 08/06/2014 Ngo
Why do we need an Air Eliminator?
If we expect air in the liquid phase of the product or pipeline

This can happen through:
• low vapor pressure of the liquid (LPG)
• pumps which are used for the loading
• any leakage at the suction site of the pump
• Empty pipeline during the start of the loading
• Switching between different tanks
• To avoid cheating during the loading (blow in air)

Why do we need a strainer?
For our Coriolis meter we don’t need any strainers for all of the refined
products.
Strainers are used normally to protect:
Mechanical meters (PD meters)
Valves
Filtration of the product
Volume provers (piston typ)
We use in our project following strainers:
Y- Type strainer
↙
Slide 52 08/06/2014 Ngo
What are the difficulties of the strainer?
Strainers have a pressure loss

We ask the suppliers of valves/provers to select the correct strainers
Monitoring of pressure loss with differential pressure indication
↙
Slide 53 08/06/2014 Ngo
What kind of valves do we use?
• Double Block & Bleed

• Ball valve type
• The purpose of the block and bleed

manifold is to isolate or block the
flow of fluid in the system, so the
fluid from upstream of the
manifold does not reach other
components of the system that are
downstream, then bleed off or vent
the remaining fluid from the
system on the downstream side of
the manifold.

Thermal relief valve (TRV)
A TRV is a safety installation in the pipeline

In liquid pipe systems, the expansion of the fluid caused by temperature increase
can cause a rupture in a closed system. To avoid this, the design code allows for a
small ‘proprietary’ orifice thermal expansion pressure relief valve to be added to
the system.

Situation before the revamp
• Preemraff refinery in Lysekil – Sweden had a large number of 12” custody

transfer turbine meters installed for their refined products ships loading.
• Due to the lack of performance and reproducibility of the turbine meters -
compared to the ships figures often the maximum permissible error of 0.3% was
exceeded.
• 0.3 % is maximum permissible error according international standards for
loading ships

• Emerson
• Krohne Oil & Gas
• Endress & Hauser

Slide 99 08/06/2014 Ngo
Solution by Endress+Hauser
• Endress & Hauser investigated the Preemraff needs and advised not only to
replace the turbine meters, but also to include flow computers and the OPC
connectivity to their Honewell Experion PKS system.
• A complete system according to the OIML R117 recommendations

complying with custody transfer regulations.

Reasons for the customer to choose Endress+Hauser
Preemraff awarded Endress & Hauser with the order for the following reasons:
• Overall systems uncertainty guaranty 0.15 % better then the OIML R117
class 0.3
• Guaranty based on individual flow meter calibrations on the hydrocarbons

including their associated flow computers at an accredited test rig (Cofrac
certified).
• Pricing was not the major issue, performance was

(flowing i.e. diesel oil through a 12 inch line at 2000 MT/H or 2500
M3/H) means: Euro 2,750.000,-- per hour per meter run; Improvement
of the uncertainty by 0.1 % equals: Euro 2750,-- per hour per meter run

Advantages for the customer.
How to earn money with the new FMS system?
• Loading the right mass

• Reduced time in harbour
• Reduce number of claims
↙
Slide
08/06/2014 Ngo
139
Loading the right mass
Loading size of ship: 7.000 tons

Increase of accuracy: 0,1 %
Price per barrel of oil: 90:- USD
Total earning per ship: 3.600:- USD
Total number of ship in one year: 1.800 ships
Total earning in one year 6.480.000:- USD
↙
Slide
08/06/2014 Ngo
140
Reduced time in harbour
As the ship enter the Jetty we can start loading.

As we have the mass direct after stop of loading / unloading. The customer
can produce the “ Bill of loading “ direct.
This give that the time for the ship in harbour will be shorter.
We also increase the number of available hours in the harbour.
↙
Slide
08/06/2014 Ngo
141
Reduce number of claims
In every contract is a paragraph about the difference between onshore figures

and ship figures.
Normally is this 0,3 %.
If it is bigger the buyer can make a claim.
If the claim delay the payment with 30 days and we calculate of an interest
rate of 5 %.
On a 7.000 tons load and 90:- USD / barrel this gives a 19.200:- USD lost
of interest.

Your benefit: Increased safety
• Transparent bunkering process for both

barge as well as vessel operator
• Vessel operator can evaluate different
barge operators and use the trustful and Safety
reliable supplier at the end
• As no manual sounding is anymore
required no manhole has to be open which
reduce the safety with open tanks on the
barge and vessel
• Proven, dedicated and standardized
bunkering solution compared to a general
or unproven solution from competition

Your benefit: Increased availability
• Saving appr 3 hours of sounding prior

and after bunkering  appr 500…600
hours per year which can be used for
additional bunkering Availability
• Vessel operators save each time appr 3
hours of berth time which is very costly
in most of harbors
• More or less no re-calibration on vessels
required as the working hours are max
100 hours per year only (max 10
bunkerings)  better maintenance

Your benefit: Increased efficiency
• Reduction of costly and time-intensive

disputes (sometimes court)
• ONE result of the bunkering value
instead of four different calculations with Efficiency
four different results
• Ship operators/owners pay between 1.5
to 4% less for fuel which is worth up to 1
M USD per vessel per year
• Standard solutions mean faster answer,
lower costs and more competitive prices

Points to consider for custody transfer calibrations
• Calibration certificate for the truck weight scale must be available for the
verification process
• Prepare enough pumps for the requested flow rate
• Prepare enough trucks for smooth batching (filled truck must be weighted
and then offloaded via the meter under test)
• Sight glass for visual check of the flow
