II. PROPOSAL SUMMARY TIES is pleased with the opportunity to offer our technical skills and experience. Using our experience and knowledge in both application and equipment used for fiscal flow measurement, TIES can provide a successful project outcome. Based on the project’s requirement, we wish to point out our design philosophy for this system. Our key focus is providing our client a metering system with maximum accuracy for long term use. Cost is always an important factor when budgeting for any new project or system. We insure that our clients have the best solution in both accuracy and cost savings. To achieve this goal, our team provides the best system design from the initial stage with the understanding of what our client needs. We also focus in onsite training after completion of our project for operation which maximizes the efficiency use of the complete system. Here is a list of items that we carefully consider when designing our system:

1. METER SELECTION TIES uses a variety of meter types for different applications. For this system, we will be using a positive displacement meter for batching of incoming oil deliveries. A positive displacement meter is a type of flow meter that requires fluid to mechanically displace components in the meter in order for flow measurement. Positive displacement (PD) flow meters measure the volumetric flow rate of a moving fluid or gas by dividing the media into fixed, metered volumes (finite increments or volumes of the fluid). TIES will be using a Smith Meter PD Rotary Vane Meter. It’s principle, combined with the meter’s uniquely designed offset inlet and outlet nozzles, minimizes pressure drop across the measuring chamber, which reduces flow through the meter clearances for maximum accuracy.

2. SKID LAYOUT

TIES can customize a skid layout to fit any application. This design includes the bi-directional meter prover integration into the metering skid so that no additional deck space is required. A typical layout of this system is shown in the two pictures below:

Technical Proposal

TRIPLE 8” METER STATION WITH 16” PROVER LOOP

FOR INCOMING OIL

The bi-directional prover is designed based on meter selection and flow requirements. Utilizing large proof volume, this will allow in achieving successful proving results within at least five proof runs. Proving each meter with at least 10,000 raw meter pulses between switches provides the highest possible confidence level in the results.

FOR INCOMING OIL

3. SYSTEM UNCERTAINTY

Measurement stability is the most important aspect for achieving a confident level of uncertainty in custody measurement. A metering system with a dedicated meter prover actually provides the means to physically measure the actual system uncertainty rather than just calculating a theoretical value. The system stability is established through multiple meter provings. The historical limits of the resulting Meter Factors define the system uncertainty. If the meter provings are consistently within a repeatability of +/-0.02% (i.e. five (5) proof runs within 0.05%), the overall system will operate with the best possible level of uncertainty. Please note that meter linearity has very little effect on the system uncertainty if the meters are proved at their operating flow rate, and the resulting Meter Factor is applied to the meter reading. Over time, the historical data will establish the parameters over which the meter system will consistently provide a well define level of uncertainty. The meter selection and the prover sizing offered in this proposal are ideal for achieving the most consistent proving results and the highest possible level of measurement precision.

Estimated Skid Dimension & Weight will be as follow:

LENGTH WIDTH HEIGHT WEIGHT 47 Feet 15 Feet 13 Feet 50,000 Pounds

14.3 Meters 4.5 Meters 4 Meters 22680 Kg

B. PROVER The meter prover is integrated into the skid structure with the meter runs. It is designed for the maximum flow rate of 2,500 BPH and design pressure of ANSI 150. The meter prover is a bi-directional type, 'U' configuration utilizing a 16 inch measuring section, 20 inch launch/receiving chambers and a 8 inch four-way diverter valve. The prover is sized for a volume of 450 gallons between detector switches and sufficient pre-run piping to allow the four-way diverter valve to be sealed before the spheroid actuates the first detector. This volume is nominal and actual volume will be determined by the water draw method. Four (4) sphere detectors with four (4) distinct prover volumes will be provided. At the maximum meter flow rate, the sphere velocity is 3.07 ft/sec. This is the optimal design velocity and prover size for this application. Length between switches is approximately 47.42 feet to insure repeatability to +/- 0.02%. The prover utilizes a 8” ANSI Class 300 Double Block and Bleed Four-way Diverter valve to control flow through the prover loop. Valve will be supplied with an electrical actuator. The prover pipe and fittings are inspected for ovality, internal smoothness, pits, and grooves prior to fabrication. Internal weld seams are ground smooth. Internal surfaces are sandblasted to white metal and Sakaphen SI 14E or Equivalent baked on epoxy internal coating is applied to provide a smooth, wear resilient path for the spheroid. Flanged joints in the measuring section are specially machined, O-ring seal design with matched bores. This permits re-assembly of the pipe sections with original alignment of parts and maintains the original measuring volume. Matched bores improve prover accuracy and repeatability, and reduce wear on the spheroid. The prover will be complete with two (2) 16 inch Polyurethane spheroids and one (1) 20 inch quick-closure to facilitate sphere inspection and removal. See Prover Calculation below for reference:
