Measurements are essential in any process requiring quantification. Without any measurement, no decision can be made and no improvement is possible. As soon as a measurement is available the relevant question is to know the validity and the uncertainty of the value reported. Understanding, monitoring, and controlling the production or flow rate, as part of industrial processes, are essential to the viable operation of production systems and allow the proper evaluation of the financial exposure before and during the life of the well or field for upstream businesses and to improve economics for the downstream businesses.
Furthermore, at various points in its journey from production to consumption, liquids or gases will be measured, typically by flow metering, for both fiscal and operational control purposes. The flow meter is the cash register for your business or the billing mechanism and it needs to be accurate.
Although there are different methodologies available to the user, it is a known fact that an inaccurate device (or a device that presents a measurement that is less than precise), can cost either the buyer or the seller millions of dollars, due to reading discrepancies.
This masterclass aims to provide an important understanding of metering & allocation through 5 unique courses to help professionals carry out jobs with superior capability and confidence that lead to positive business performance. The learning stage and needs of each professional might be different, thus this program is designed to give flexibility where delegates can choose to attend a single course, a combination of courses, or complete a masterclass (5-in-1).
This training is provided by an HRDcrop certified trainer and it is addressed to anyone new to flow measurement both in a technical and non-technical capacity including technicians, engineers, salespeople, administrators, and managers. The course is intensive but will make an effective use of delegates’ time. This training has been successful over the last years and numerous companies have been involved.
Who is attempting this master class? Delegates who require a basic understanding of measurement system calculations, their role, and their Effect in the measurement process, such as Metering Technicians & Engineers, Research and Development Engineers, Instrumentation Engineers, Quality Managers, Technical Managers, Metering System Designers.
The strong collaboration with Semarak Solution and Semrak training led to provide not only training which is an HRD Corp Claimable Course but also provided by a Certified HRD Trainer.

Flow measurement is vital to many industrial sectors: water supply, oil extraction, gas distribution, and much of the process and pharmaceutical industry depend on flow measurement for quality control and custody transfer. To obtain the required level of accuracy at an appropriate price, it is crucial that the right meter is selected for the application and that it is appropriately used. However, the flow meter user is faced with a bewildering array of technologies and conflicting claims from manufacturers.
The objective of this course enable delegates to understand the issues surrounding flow measurement. It also provides the delegate with an unbiased view of the various technologies available and the basic knowledge required to make informed choices. Key aspects of flow measurement, all general meter types, and their applications will be discussed and explained.
Measurement is fundamental to the control of quality, efficiency, and safety. This one-day course is designed to impart a basic understanding of measurement uncertainty. Delegates will learn about the impact of uncertainty in the industry, identify important sources of uncertainty in measurement systems, and receive practical guidance on the design of measurement techniques to minimize uncertainty.
A transaction involving the physical transfer of oil and gas from one operator to another is known as a Custody Transfer. Accurate metering of the fluids being transferred between the two is therefore of vital importance. This one-day training course will enable metering engineers to gain knowledge of how fluids are metered in the oil and gas sector.
Accurate measurement of produced hydrocarbons has always been a very high priority for oil and gas operating companies. To satisfy this requirement, stringent requirements are set for the various calculations that are adopted to define the quantity and quality of the fluids being measured. Numerous standards define these parameters and this half-day course explains the commonly used equations and standards by detailing the source of the calculations, the parameters used, the required inputs/outputs, and their effect on the uncertainty of measurement.
In Oil and Gas production environments, it is often necessary for operating companies to share production and transportation facilities. It is therefore important that the hydrocarbons entering such facilities are equitably allocated between the companies contributing to the system. The process of dividing the produced hydrocarbons, ensuring that each operator gets their allotted share is known as hydrocarbon allocation. This one-day course is designed to describe the development of an allocation system and explain the different types of allocation calculations that are commonly applied.
