2103971-001 – rev. AB
All liquid hydrocarbons and other products (including sulfur and
excluding residue gas) recovered in a gas processing plant.
See Programmable logic controller
A technique used to optimize gas production. A Steel plunger is
inserted into the production tubing in the well. The flow is turned off and
this shut-in causes plunger to fall allowing fluid to collect above plunger.
Different techniques are used to decide how long to shut in and flow the
well.
In electricity, the quality of having two oppositely charged poles, one
positive one negative.
A snapshot view of the readings taken by the Totalflow equipment.
A communications connection on a computer or a remote controller. A
place of access to a device or network, used for input/output of digital
and analog signals.
An increase in resistance due to an increase in temperature.
Opens circuit when high current condition occurs. Closes when
condition no longer exists. Replaces typical fuses, which require
replacement when blown.
Program Organization Unit. This is Softing's term for an 'independent
programming unit'. Programs, functions, etc.
A separate unit or part of a circuit that supplies power to the rest of the
circuit or to a system.
Acronym for parts per million.
The contractual, regulatory or standard ambient pressure at which
natural gas is measured or sampled expressed in psia (pounds per
square inch absolute).
Difference in pressure between any two points in a continuous system.
Pressure testing at different levels of pressure. Used for comparison
purposes.
See PSIA.
See Atmospheric Pressure.
In the natural gas industry pressure is measured by the force applied to
a designated area. PSI and OSI refer to how much pressure (pound or
ounce) is applied to one square inch. Inches Water Column (In.W.C.) is
also used to express gas pressure and is measured using a manometer
for lower pressure readings. 1 PSIG=27.21 Inches Water Column.
See PSIG.
A cell or battery which is not intended to be recharged and is discarded
when the cell or battery has delivered all its electrical energy.
Acronym for Pressure Regulator Module.
A generic term that is used to describe many types of temperature
sensors.
