The SFC3000 Flow Computer is one component in a system that precisely measures the flow of liquids, steam, or gases. While the computer offers insight into the system’s effectiveness and efficiency, the meters gather the measurements, and the process controls allow for adjustment of the quantities, pressures, and more. In March 2021, BP announced its […]
Whether it is gas measurement or liquid flow measurement, a flow computer is the brain of a system that monitors the efficiency and effectiveness of your business practices. There is a general understanding that a flow computer will only benefit those industries that run massive plants. Here we explore the many uses for a flow […]
There are many reasons why the accurate measurement of gas is essential to those working in the oil and gas sector. From safety to efficiency, using a flow computer to keep a check on operations is vital. With its multiple 32 bit processors throughout the system, the SFC3000 Flow Computer offers companies the capacity to […]
As one of the UK’s major employers, the oil and gas industry is massively important to the economy. However, with dwindling reserves, changing attitudes to energy production, and the most challenging economic environment in decades, the sector is under pressure. Employment levels in the UK have dropped from over 450,000 in 2014 to less than […]
Designing and manufacturing a flow computer system has lots of overlap with the design of other IT systems. The focus of any design is bespoke decision making for the needs of the business. Here we explore the significant decisions needed to create the most effective flow computer system for you. What is a flow computer […]
The oil and gas industry, to stay relevant, is looking at ways to be part of the energy transition. The demand for a carbon-zero future was always going to prove a challenge for those companies relying on fossil fuel extraction, production, and delivery. However, the significant oil and gas players are also vital innovators, and […]
The silver bullet of the energy sector is a fuel that offers zero emissions and reduces our impact on the environment. As the Royal Institute lectures noted in 2020, before humanity, the carbon in the atmosphere was 280 parts per million. Today, this stands at 415 parts per million, resulting in a temperature change of […]
Flow measurement is essential to many industries. The monitoring of the rate of flow of air, gas, and water provides exact information to specialists who manage the efficiency and effectiveness of processes. It also helps in the detection of significant issues within a more extensive system. Liquid flow measurement can also provide data on the […]
With climate change and the consequences of evolving weather patterns becoming a significant concern, the targets for the reduction of carbon emissions grow tighter. The challenge for the oil and gas sector is to seek a path to decarbonisation and remain a relevant force in the energy industry and beyond. The use of green hydrogen […]
Any exploration of upstream merger and acquisition trends and considerations has to start by stating the obvious, 2020 has been a turbulent time. It is not just in oil and gas that uncertainty has reigned, but in all aspects of the economy and society. Therefore, anything said in an analysis of 2020 and predictions for […]
