Non-invasive flowmeters measure natural gas volume and composition with no process penetrations
3/31/2026
Looking back a decade or two, natural gas came from traditional fields with predictable composition and characteristics. As natural gas began to replace coal, demand increased, causing producers to develop new fields and drilling techniques—especially fracking— expanding the range of sources enormously while also reducing composition consistency. Today, with liquified natural gas (LNG), hydrogen (H2) blending, biomethane blending and other new sources, the range of supply is wider than ever. Consequently, the chemical composition of natural gas can vary widely, changing its characteristics for fuel use on a daily basis. Gas producers, pipeline companies and end users must monitor its comp
