Project Profile: Custody Transfer Flow Meters Installation

Key Project Details

  • Project Name: Custody Transfer Flow Meters Installation
  • Core Objective: To modernize the measurement infrastructure by deploying 23 custody transfer meters and establishing a centralized verification system.
  • Scope of Work: Full design, supply, programming, automation, and commissioning.
  • Technology Deployed: 23 Custody Transfer Coriolis Flowmeters and a centralized ball prover system.
  • Operational Impact:
    • Delivered measurable gains in inventory accuracy and operational reliability.
    • Unified multiple product lines under a single, highly accurate automation platform.
    • Facilitated precise on-site calibration and measurement validation.
  •  

RIDA T.S. executed one of its most comprehensive refinery measurement upgrades by completely replacing legacy systems with 23 state-of-the-art flowmeters. To guarantee uncompromising accuracy, we engineered a centralized ball prover system, allowing the refinery to validate metering performance continuously without disrupting ongoing operations.

Products & Services Used:

  • Coriolis Flowmeters (23 Units): Deployed across multiple process lines to ensure custody-grade measurement of refined products.
  • Centralized Ball Prover System: A heavy-duty mechanical validation system designed to physically verify the exact accuracy of the flowmeters in real-time.
  • Custom Control Cabinets: Fully engineered and programmed PLC/HMI interfaces and flow computers, built to consolidate data into a single operational dashboard.

Post-Project Impact:

This massive infrastructure overhaul transformed the refinery’s inventory management. By introducing extreme precision and a reliable calibration mechanism, RIDA T.S. eliminated product handling discrepancies, establishing a trusted and transparent framework for the refinery’s commercial output.
