To limit your exposure to potential financial risks arising from inaccurate measurements in your energy metering system, there is a need to measure the efficiency and effectiveness of your metering of gas quality.

By investing in annual health checks and performance tests provided by an independent specialist company, the quality and accuracy of your data is maintained with proven traceability and a sound audit trail. This provides confidence in your natural gas analysis which is used subsequently to determine other calculated properties and ultimately the monetary value of your gas.

Calculations of mass/energy balances, physical properties and process efficiencies are then more credible and have a traceable and quantifiable uncertainty. Your internal risk assessments can then be based on accurate and auditable information providing improved financial predictions and profitability.

An annual health check on a gas quality measurement system provides qualitative and quantitative information about its current performance and also confidence in expected future performance. It provides a benchmark of comprehensive traceable evidence against which future performance can be evaluated.

As part of the health check we carry out an inspection of the whole gas quality measurement chain covering

• Sampling Sample transit times
• Sample conditioning
• Calibration procedures
• Data handling
• Quality control procedures
• Alarm limits

As part of this service we supply free telephone support and advice including

1/ Breakdown support  : advice on instrument hardware problems and telephone support to help to rectify the problem.

2/ Technical support  : advice on analytical procedures including calibration gas composition, quality control procedures and refinement of parameters to improve gas quality measurements.

On demand maintenance / repair call outs are provided, at competitive rates, with typical response times of less than 48 hours.
