FOREWORD
This foreword is for information and is not part of this
standard. Chapter 14, Section 3, Part 2, of the Manual of
Petroleum Measurement Standards furnishes the specifications
and installation requirements for the measurement of single-phase,
homogeneous Newtonian fluids using concentric, square-edged,
flange-tapped orifice meters. It provides the specifications for
the construction and installation of orifice plates, meter tubes,
and associated fittings. Users of pipe tap orifice meters are
referred to Chapter 14, Section 3, Part 3, for specifications
relevant to those meters. Pipe tap information for allocation
measurement is contained in Chapter 20.1 "Allocation
Measurement."
This standard has been developed through the cooperative efforts
of many individuals from industry under the sponsorship of the
American Petroleum Institute, the American Gas Association, the Gas
Processors Association and Management Service, with contributions
from the Chemical Manufacturers Association, the Canadian Gas
Association, the Commission of the European Communities, Canada,
Norway, Japan, and others.
