Single-Line Gas Metering Station

13 February 2019

A meeting led by Deputy Chairman of the Board V.A. Markelov has been held to discuss the possibility of using a single-line gas metering station at PJSC Gazprom's facilities.

A meeting led by Deputy Chairman of the Board V.A. Markelov has been held to discuss the possibility of using a single-line gas metering station at PJSC Gazprom's facilities. It was decided to use this technical solution as much as possible, including revision of the existing designs, during the implementation of the approved GMS Construction (Reconstruction) Program for 2018–2021.

The concept of a single-line gas metering station (GMS) entails shifting away from the conventional multi-line GMS design and switching to use of the Vympel-500 large-diameter (from DN 700 mm to DN 1400 mm) ultrasonic measurement system directly integrated into the trunk pipeline. The main advantage of the single-line GMS is the several-fold reduction in expenses related to GMS facility capital construction and maintenance. This is achieved by using the existing valves of the trunk pipeline and the bypass pipeline of the compressor station. This solution successfully passed 3-year long pilot tests at Donskoye Gas Pipeline Management Directorate, a facility of Gazprom Transgaz Moscow, in the period from 2015 to 2018.
