EGM Data Management includes the services necessary
to import, review, recalculate, and provide data storage for orifice,
positive displacement, turbine, ultrasonic and coriolis meters. Utilizing
the most advanced software available, Flow-Cal Enterprise, we also offer
near-time pipeline balancing, secure Internet access to volume data, API
Chapter 21 audit trails, and many other features.

Orifice Chart Measurement
includes censoring, chart integration, data validation, calculation, and
data storage for orifice and positive displacement meters. Custom exports
are available to furnish your measurement department with "Integration
Only" results when that is all you need. Contract "Integration
Only" is a cost-effective option for the full-time, part-time, emergency
relief, or vacation relief requirements of many pipeline measurement departments.

Gas Accounting includes
a complete report of gross production, fuel consumption, liquid extraction,
shrinkage, the allocation of each well's natural gas production adjusted
to pipeline sales, and the system balance results in both numerical and
graphical form. Custom accounting for gas processing, treatment plants,
and pipelines are also available.

Orifice Measurement Auditing
is the process of verifying the calculations associated with determining
your natural gas deliveries or purchases from either chart recorded or
electronic measurement sources. Through this process we recover an average
of 500,000 Mcf of gas for our customers each year, yielding an average
return of approximately 400% on their auditing costs.
Orifice Meter Inspection &
Calibration services include repair; measurement
equipment installation, gas and liquid sampling; the physical and chemical
tests associated with gas measurement and quality…such as specific
gravity, moisture content, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen sulfide concentrations;
and gas surveys to determine the volumes and composition of vented separator
gas and tank vapors. Coastal Flow's measurement technicians are equipped
to test most electronic and mechanical orifice meters and maintain a substantial
inventory of materials and supplies to meet our customer's needs onsite.
Through witness testing, we monitor all physical, chemical, and calibration
tests performed by the purchaser that could affect your measurement price,
or the determination of gas quality. Gas contracts historically provide
for the witnessing of such procedures, and this should always be done.

Engineering & Consulting
services related to gas and liquid measurement includes the expert design
of new measurement systems and troubleshooting problems in existing systems.
Sales Gas Contracts should
provide a fundamental agreement between buyers and sellers of natural
gas to employ mutual standards and procedures for measurement, sampling,
auditing, and the settlement of disputes. With Coastal Flow's EGM Contract
Advisor software available as a free download, you will be able to develop
the most equitable measurement terms available anywhere.

Pulsation Testing is necessary
to determine the existence and magnitude of pulsation at orifice metering
stations because of the serious effect it may have upon measurement. Coastal
Flow utilizes the most advanced electronic instrumentation, data acquisition
devices, and computer programs available to analyze this problem. In addition,
our engineering staff designs symmetrical acoustical cut-off filters for
the elimination of pulsation-induced error.
