Abstract
The certified BIPS unit developed by “Sheshmaoil” Management Company LLC makes it possible to measure the mass and gross mass flow rate of oil in the measurement range from 0,04 t/h (1 t/day) to 4,1665 t/h (100 t/day), mass and net mass flow rate of oil, volume and volumetric flow rate of associated petroleum gas in the oil and gas-water mixture, reduced to standard conditions in the measurement range from 12,5 m3/h (300 m3/day) to 208,3 m3/h (5 000 m3/day) with the content of associated petroleum gas in dehydrated oil not more than 50 m3/t under standard conditions. The values measured with the BIPS do not exceed the rates and the limits of permissible errors. The analysis of measurement results
is presented.
Materials and methods
The relative errors in measuring fluid and oil mass flow, as well as those of air flow were determined on a certified test bench. A method of measurements by the BIPS unit based on the accumulation of a watergas-oil mixture in a calibrated measuring tank has been developed, certified and tested.
