As a Strategic Research Priority (SRP), one of the key research objectives for PRCI and its members includes reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) from pipeline systems by developing, demonstrating, and validating processes and sensors to detect, quantify, and mitigate such releases. Identification of unexpected deviations in unit efficiency would allow operators to make timely repairs or adjustments to restore efficiency and minimize related greenhouse gases required to drive compressors and pumps. This report covers existing and emerging sensors that can be used to install retrofit flow measurement ...
As a Strategic Research Priority (SRP), one of the key research objectives for PRCI and its members includes reducing Greenhouse Gas (GHG) from pipeline systems by developing, demonstrating, and validating processes and sensors to detect, quantify, and mitigate such releases. Identification of unexpected deviations in unit efficiency would allow operators to make timely repairs or adjustments to restore efficiency and minimize related greenhouse gases required to drive compressors and pumps. This report covers existing and emerging sensors that can be used to install retrofit flow measurement equipment to compressors and pumps, considering the unique equipment challenges.
