8、al ofPetroleum Measurement Stan dards, Chapter 20.1, was developed in response to an indicated desire by federal and stateregulatory agencies to reference API measurement standards. In 1986 various regulatoryagencies began requiring the petroleum industry to use the API Manual of PetroleumMeasuremen

9、t Standards for allocation measurement on federal and state leased lands. Theedition of the manual in place then was written specifically for custody transfer mea surement, which was inappropriate for allocation measurement. Although the petroleumindustry does a substantial amount of allocation meas

10、urement, the industry was beingrequired to use a standard that did not apply.The API Committee on Petroleum Measurement responded in the spring of 1987 bycommissioning a task group to survey the industry and determine if an allocation standardwas necessary. After determining that the need did actual

11、ly exist, an API working groupwas commissioned in the fall of 1987 to develop the scope and the field of application forsuch a standard.A second survey in the fall of 1987 was conducted to verify the types ofequipment used,the typical design of measurement facilities, and the typical operating proce

12、dures used forallocation measurement. This document, Chapter 20.1 of the API Manual of PetroleumMeasurement Standards, is the result of that industry survey and the efforts of the workinggroup.API publications may be used by anyone desiring to do so. Every effort has been madeby the Institute to ass

It does not apply

36、toliquid/gas two phase flow measurement.If the measurement scheme has flow parameters which are similar to custody transferquality measurement, the applicable API MPMS chapters should be used as a guide.However, if the measured liquid is at or above its bubble point, the following designconsideratio

37、ns should be used:a. Special effort must be made to minimize the pressure drop in the system. Pressurereduction may cause solution gas to break out from the liquid. Gas in a liquid stream willcause erroneous measurement. The following procedure should be used:1. Select and size the flow meter.2. Ins

38、tall the flow meter upstream of a control valve.3. Minimize the distance between the separator outlet and the flow meter.4. Locate the flow meter below the liquid level in the test separator.b. The flow meter should be selected to minimize the potential of erosion if a significantamount of abrasives

39、 are present in the flow stream.c. The materials for construction ofthe meter should be selected to eliminate the potentialfor stress corrosion from the chlorides or hydrogen sulfide in the produced water. Thetemperature, pressure, and composition of the streams must also be considered during thedes

40、ign and selection of materials.d. When flowing or ambient temperature affects meter performance, consideration shouldbe given to insulating or heat tracing the flowmeter system.1.5.2 MEASUREMENT EQUIPMENT CONSIDERATIONS1.5.2.1 Displacement MetersVariations in the viscosity of the liquid will affect

41、meter performance. These variationsare due to varying water cut, oil gravity, and temperature. Ifa significant viscosity variationoccurs, a series of meter factors may be developed to account for different operatingconditions. Variations in meter performance may also be reduced by using similar meas

42、ure ment procedures, proving techniques, and types of equipment at all allocation facilities.The system design and selection ofequipment should be in accordance with API MPMSChapter 5.2, as applicable.3American Society for Testing and Materials, 1916 Race Street.

Singlephase has generally been used to mean liquid only

44、. API MPMS Chapter 5 may also beextended to liquid-liquid (oil and water) single phase measurement as in many allocationmeasurement schemes.The scope, field of application, system design, selection of meters, installation, opera tion, and maintenance ofturbine meters used in allocation measurement s

45、chemes are foundin API MPMS Chapter 5.3, Paragraphs 5.3.1, 5.3.2, 5.3.3, 5.3.4, and 5.3.6. In allocationmeasurement schemes, the fluid characteristics may vary substantially and this variationwill in tum affect the performance of the turbine meter.1.5.2.3 Differential Pressure DevicesThe most common

46、 differential pressure meter used in the allocation measurement ofliquids is the flange tapped, concentric orifice type. The primary element should be con structed and installed in accordance with the specifications contained in the latest revisionofAPI MPMS Chapter 14.3.The differential pressure me

47、asuring device (transmitter or bellows chart recorder) shallbe mounted below the orifice flange taps with the gauge lines sloping one inch per foottoward the secondary element. The gauge lines should be as short in length as possible andinstalled to prevent any vapor traps. Generally, on a bellows s

48、econdary element, the gaugelines should be connected to the top connections of the bellows assembly. However,depending on the liquid being measured, it may be preferable to connect to the bottombellows connections.The orifice flange tap connections shall be located on the side of the meter tube at 9

49、0degrees from vertical. Depending on the liquid being measured and ambient conditions, itmay be necessary to use a seal system to prevent plugging, corrosion, freezing, and otherproblems of the gauge lines and secondary element. The seal system shall consist of sealpots installed at the orifice taps with the pots, gauge lines, and secondary element filled witha suitable seal liquid.Accessory instrumentation to determine temperature, density, water content, and otherfactors shall be installed as necessary, depending on the application and type of measure ment (for example, vol
