Gas Flow measurement at a Separator Outlet Engineers on a Chinese offshore platform in the Zhaodong oilfield consulted FLEXIM as they had doubts about the accuracy of the readings from their orifice / differential pressure flow meters installed on the separator's outlet. On this particular offshore platform, three separators are separating the crude oil / gas mixture coming from the wellheads. The natural gas streams on the outlets of these separators are measured by orifice / differential pressure meters. As the readings of these meters were not matching the process, the platform engineers became suspicious. After checking the flow rates of the differential pressure meters with the portable, hazardous area certified FLUXUS G608 gas flow meter, their suspicions proved to be true. The diff
