CoriolisMaster flowmeter

Reliable high precision measurements are paramount in the transfer of expensive commodities such as oil and gas, special chemicals, milk, whisky or similar liquids in order to safeguard the financial interests of the buyer and the seller. As part of the custody transfer process of such commodities, fiscal metering is a highly regulated area which falls under both international standards and regional regulations, such as OIML¹. Even the smallest imprecision in the measurement process can lead to significant financial losses as well as increased risk of harmful leaks into the environment.

As a measurement device, ABB’s updated, newly custody transfer-approved CoriolisMaster flowmeter is not only highly accurate but also five times faster in measurement than previous models. It meets international standards approval and is being used for key custody transfer transactions of liquids from one location to another following international OIML standards or local regulations such as MID in the European Union and others.

When liquids are being moved there is also a high risk of leakage into the atmosphere and environment. Therefore, extremely precise measurements are essential to detect any deficiencies in the process to ensure not a single drop is lost. With the CoriolisMaster flowmeter real-time data insights are available for instant action. The inclusion of the ABB Ability™ Verification for measurement devices solution enables the performance of the meter to be verified at any stage either on-site or remotely. Because these measurements are continuous the reliability of ABB’s CoriolisMaster in maintaining its calibration across its lifecycle is an essential component of the device.

Key facts:

• Ensures precise measurements essential for custody transfer of expensive liquids
• Meets international custody transfer approval standards
• Minimizes risk of leakage into atmosphere and environment
