Calibration is the key

VSL explains how insulating a flowmeter can affect the flowmeter temperature measurement value and how this can affect the mass flow output.

LNG has traditionally been used to transport natural gas across the world to supply areas where it is not readily available. This is achieved using LNG carrier ships that are designed for cryogenic storage and with specific volumes based on the level of LNG in the storage tanks. Transport companies make level measurements after loading the ship with LNG and again when the LNG is unloaded. The difference between these two measurements is the total volume of LNG transferred which is used in the final energy calculation. There are many corrections made to each measurement in this process to obtain the corrected volume.
