Storage and distribution in oil and gas, safe and efficient

Maximize performance and minimize risk with dependable metering, monitoring and automation

Storage and distribution in oil and gas industry operations poses competing pressures. Intense market rivalry places an emphasis on plant efficiency as never before. Tank capacity must be optimized, inventory strictly controlled, and processes optimized for loading and transfer. With such imperatives come increased risks to operators and the environment, therefore ensuring operational safety is also vital. The Endress+Hauser portfolio enables simple, safe operations with optimal performance.

분야별 전문성

Both highly accurate and reliable, Endress+Hauser Coriolis flowmeters can measure multiple parameters with minimal maintenance and recalibration. Transfer capacity can be increased with guaranteed transparency, accuracy and safety in the process.

  • Increase handling volume with larger meter sizes

  • Load more safely thanks to a higher tolerance of air/gas content than with mechanical meters

  • Spur plant performance and efficiency

  • Achieve operational excellence from start-up into the long term with commissioning site management

Reliable bunker fuel metering

Error-prone volume to mass calculations and air pockets in the fuel can make measurement of bunker fueling an expensive and uncertain process.

Accurate bunker fueling process
분야별 전문성

Replacing traditional quantity measurement practices with bunker fuel metering systems such as the Endress+Hauser Coriolis flowmeter can increase transparency. Multiple process parameters can be simultaneously monitored via a control panel during fueling. Moreover, air pockets are corrected in the measurement during tank emptying.

  • Increase profitability

  • Improve measuring results

  • Ensure trust between buyers and suppliers

Optimized storage tank overfill prevention

When handling combustible or petrochemical products, tank overfills can increase risk and danger considerably. Overfill prevention systems play a vital role in mitigating such risks.
