Course Details

CEESI offers the Fundamentals of Natural Gas Measurement Training Course and the Comprehensive Natural Gas Measurement Training Course, which have similar agendas but are taught at different technical levels. This comprehensive course builds on the material presented in the fundamentals class by providing much more detail. Some of the material is presented simultaneously in two parallel "tracks", the student selects the track that best fits their needs. The first track is organized around the use of orifice meters and other differential producing flow elements (cone type, wedge type, venturi etc.). The second track focuses on the linear meters, ultrasonic and turbine. The two tracks allows for a greater level of detail while providing flexibility to the students. The remainder of the course materials, identified as "common topics”", are presented to the entire group. All courses are taught by qualified professionals from the CEESI staff and special guest lecturers from the various flow measurement industries.
