Natural gas - Measurement of properties - Volumetric properties: density, pressure, temperature and compression factor (ISO 15970:2008)
EN ISO 15970:2014

EN-ISO 15970 gives requirements and procedures for the measurement of the properties of natural gas that are used mainly for volume calculation and volume conversion: density at reference and at operating conditions, pressure, temperature and compression factor. Only those methods and instruments are considered that are suitable for field operation under the conditions of natural gas transmission and distribution, installed either in-line or on-line, and that do not involve the determination of the gas composition. This International Standard gives examples for currently used instruments that are available commercially and of interest to the natural gas industry. NOTE Attention is drawn to requirements for approval of national authorization agencies and to national legal regulations for the use of these devices for commercial or official trade purposes. The density at reference conditions (sometimes referred to as normal, standard or even base density) is required for conversion of volume data and can be used for other physical properties. Density at operating conditions is measured for mass-flow measurement and volume conversion using the observed line density and can be used for other physical properties. This International Standard covers density transducers based on vibrating elements, normally suitable for measuring ranges of 5 kg/m3 to 250 kg/m3. Pressure measurement deals with differential, gauge and absolute pressure transmitters. It considers both analogue and smart transmitters (i.e. microprocessor based instruments) and, if not specified otherwise, the corresponding paragraphs refer to differential, absolute and gauge pressure transmitters without distinction. Temperature measurements in natural gas are performed within the range of conditions under which transmission and distribution are normally carried out (253 K < T < 338 K). In this field of application, resistance thermometer detectors (RTD) are generally used. The compression factor (also known as the compressibility factor or the real gas factor and given the symbol Z) appears, in particular, in equations governing volumetric metering. Moreover, the conversion of volume at metering conditions to volume at defined reference conditions can properly proceed with an accurate knowledge of Z at both relevant pressure and relevant temperature conditions.

Natural gas - Measurement of properties - Calorific value and Wobbe index (ISO 15971:2008)
EN ISO 15971:2014

EN-ISO 15971 concerns the measurement of calorific value of natural gas and natural gas substitutes by non-separative methods, i.e. methods that do not involve the determination of the gas composition nor calculation from it. It describes the principles of operation of a variety of instruments in use for this purpose, and provides guidelines for the selection, evaluation, performance assessment, installation and operation of these. Calorific values can be expressed on a mass basis, a molar basis or, more commonly, a volume basis. The working range for superior calorific value of natural gas, on the volume basis, is usually between 30 MJ/m3 and 45 MJ/m3 at standard reference conditions (see ISO 13443). The corresponding range for the Wobbe index is usually between 40 MJ/m3 and 60 MJ/m3. This International Standard neither endorses nor disputes the claims of any commercial manufacturer for the performance of an instrument. Its central thesis is that fitness-for-purpose in any particular application (defined in terms of a set of specific operational requirements) can be assessed only by means of a well-designed programme of experimental tests. Guidelines are provided for the proper content of these tests.

SIST EN ISO 10723:2013(Main)
Natural gas - Performance evaluation for analytical systems (ISO 10723:2012)
EN ISO 10723:2012

This International Standard specifies a method of determining whether an analytical system for natural gas analysis is fit for purpose. It can be used either a) to determine a range of gas compositions to which the method can be applied, using a specified calibration gas, while satisfying previously defined criteria for the maximum errors and uncertainties on the composition or property or both, or b) to evaluate the range of errors and uncertainties on the composition or property (calculable from composition) or both when analysing gases within a defined range of composition, using a specifiedIt is assumed that a) for evaluations of the first type above, the analytical requirement has been clearly and unambiguously defined, in terms of the range of acceptable uncertainty on the composition, and, where appropriate, the uncertainty in physical properties calculated from these measurements, b) for applications of the second type above, the analytical requirement has been clearly and unambiguously defined, in terms of the range of composition to be measured and, where appropriate, the range of properties which may be calculated from these measurements, c) the analytical and calibration procedures have been fully described, and d) the analytical system is intended to be applied to gases having compositions which vary over rangesIf the performance evaluation shows the system to be unsatisfactory in terms of the uncertainty on the component amount fraction or property, or shows limitations in the ranges of composition or property values measurable within the required uncertainty, then it is intended that the operating parameters, including a) the analytical requirement, b) the analytical procedure, c) the choice of equipment, d) the choice of calibration gas mixture, and e) the calculation procedure, be reviewed to assess where improvements can be obtained. Of these parameters, the choice of the calibration gas composition is likely to have the most significant influence. This International Standard is applicable to analytical systems which measure individual component amount fractions. For an application such as calorific value determination, the method will be typically gas chromatography, set up, as a minimum, for the measurement of nitrogen, carbon dioxide, individual hydrocarbons from C1 to C5 and a composite measurement representing all higher hydrocarbons of carbon number 6 and above. This allows for the calculation of calorific value and similar properties with acceptable accuracy. In addition, components such as H2S can be measured individually by specific measurement methods to which this evaluation approach can also be applied. normally found in gas transmission and distribution systems. Performance evaluation of an analytical system is intended to be performed following initial installation to ensure that errors associated with assumed response functions are fit for purpose. Thereafter, periodic performance evaluation is recommended, or whenever any critical component of the analytical system is adjusted or replaced. The appropriate interval between periodic performance evaluations will depend upon both how instrument responses vary with time and also how large an error may be tolerated. This first consideration is dependent upon instrument/operation; the second is dependent on the application. It is not appropriate, therefore, for this International Standard to offer specific recommendations on intervals between performance evaluations.
