Custody transfer in fluid measurement is defined as a metering point (location) where the fluid is being measured for sale from one party to another.
During custody transfer, accuracy is of great importance to both the company delivering the material and the eventual recipient, when transferring a material
A Meter Skid is a special platform on which various devices and instruments are installed. The Meter Skid consists of pipelines, filters and other equipment necessary for the metering function.
Due to the high level of Accuracy requirement the meters are selected based on American Petroleum Institute (API), Saudi Aramco Material Standards, Specifications and Procedures.
A typical liquid custody transfer skid includes multiple flowmeters and meter provers. Provers are used to calibrate meters in-situ and are performed frequently; typically, before, during, and after a batch transfer for metering assurance.
All monitoring and operations are done by flow computer along with Supervisory Control. All these components are installed and tested offsite. After the successful testing of the skid, it is shipped to the location where it is going to be used and installed as a main metering unit.
