Custody transfer metering systems for produced water
Metering solution for contaminated and treated water from oil wells
- Pre-installed measurement skid with flowmeters and valves
- Pre-calibrated to meet custody transfer regulations (e.g. OIML R49, MID MI-001)
- Completely designed, engineered and manufactured according to customer specifications
KROHNE metering systems for produced water are tailored to the needs of wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) inlets and outlets. Whether it be contaminated water from oil wells or from other industrial sites: The metering skids are the key to clear and consistent billing procedures in accordance with custody transfer regulations. All water quantities are accurately measured, allowing the WWTP operator to precisely determine all the produced water loads received and processed.
KROHNE takes full project responsibility for the metering systems. The produced water skids come completely assembled and tested with calibrated electromagnetic flowmeters (e.g. the OPTIFLUX 2300), inlet and outlet piping, isolation valves, metering control cabinets with flow computers and supervisory system for monitoring, reporting and validation. KROHNE metering systems are often designed as a master-duty or Z-configuration, where a cross-over allows periodical verification of the duty meters against the master meter. In this way, maximum performance and lowest measurement uncertainty is guaranteed.
With instrumentation and custody transfer metering systems designed from the same source, customers can rely on seamless integration of all components. KROHNE has been established in many industries since 1921 and has a local presence in over 100 countries to provide on-going support.
