Training Principles and Practice of Flow Measurements

Training Principles and Practice of Flow Measurements – This course is intended to give a breadth and depth analysis in oil and gas flow measurement problems which are actually and frequently occurred in the field. In this course the way to diagnose and solve the problem will be shown. Beside that how to detect ant determine miscellaneous constituents in oil and gas will be presented too. The participants will be brought to current methods in analyzing oil and gas flow measurement problems that occurred in actual fields. Skills in identifying various problems will be build during the course. The modern technique uses a relatively complicated method, but, more accurate and serves much more information needed for oil and gas floe measurement.

After participate in this training, the participants will be able and capable to

• Understand the basic concept of oil and gas flow measurement , oil and gas handling processes and operation, and how to operate this technology in field application.
• Analyze the oil and gas flow measurement  under with actual handling system processes using various methods and to plan the better development of oil and gas processing system.
• Understand the fundamentals of microscopic and macroscopic aspects and phenomena of oil and gas flow measurement, oil and gas  detection, calculation and operation.
