New NMS Engineering & Flow Programme

Formulation of the Engineering and Flow Programme now takes place on a continuous basis and new projects are approved annually. Formulation for new projects, to be included from October 2009, is now underway. The following topics have been formulated to date -

"Characterisation of the physical properties of bio-fuels, syn-fuels and high viscosity oils" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Complex flow characterisation" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Experimental Evaluation of look-down Ultrasonic level guages" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Enhancement of the national oil flow standards to include oils up to 1500 cSt" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Coriolis metering of multiphase flows" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Deriving fluid properties from ultrasonic Flow Meter data" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Measurement Solutions for Carbon Capture & Storage (CCS) Regulation" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"The application of Flow Meter diagnostics to determine shifts in calibration" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Flow Meter Installation Errors and Flow Conditioning in High Viscosity Fluids" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)
"Sampling complex fluid flows" (You must be registered and logged in to view this document)

One-page summaries of the rationale, needs, benefits and impact of these topic areas are available by clicking the links above. Further proposals are being prepared, based on feedback from industry and DIUS priorities.

Your comments on the above proposals are welcome and will be reviewed in April. Please send your comments to flow@tuvnel.com.

If you or your company have any additional flow measurement issues that could be addressed in the Programme, please submit them here.
