A flow meter is a test device used to measure the flow rate of process fluids and gases in industrial plants and facilities. The flow rate refers to the speed at which a process fluid is moving through pipelines, orifices, or vessels at a given time. Control and instrumentation engineers measure this value to monitor […]
Over the life cycle of a well, there are three stages of hydrocarbon production; primary hydrocarbon recovery, secondary hydrocarbon recovery, and enhanced oil recovery (EOR). EOR becomes essential when there is a decline in the reservoir pressure and primary and secondary recovery methods have become unable to sustain profitable production. One commonly used unconventional hydrocarbon […]
Instrumentation and control refer to the analysis, measurement, and control of industrial process variables using process control instruments and software tools such as temperature, pressure, flow, and level sensors, analyzers, electrical and mechanical actuators, Human-Machine Interfaces (HMI), Piping and Instrumentation Diagram (P&ID) systems, automated control systems and more. What Is Instrumentation and Control Engineering? Control […]
A major Midstream company approved the construction of a new crude oil pipeline, spanning from the West Texas Permian Basin to the Gulf Coast. The pipeline will create reliable access to crude oil in the region, bringing more growth to the Texas energy industry. The current pipeline route will run 850 miles from the Permian […]
