Natural Gas standards

Natural gas composition varies from source to source and often varies on a daily and seasonal basis. Using a calibration gas that is specifically designed for your application ensures that you will continue to achieve the best possible gas quality measurements. BHORUKA’s experienced staff possess over twenty years of experience in gas industry to design calibration gases to suit each customer’s specific requirements.

Maximising gas volume

Proposed designs will also maximise cylinder filling pressures, where appropriate, through gas liquid phase equilibrium calculations so you receive the highest gas volume possible within the required parameters.

Physical properties

Physical properties for all-natural gas and LNG calibration mixtures are included on certificates of calibration. These can be used for measurement confirmation as part of your quality control procedures and validation.

Physical properties of calorific value, relative density, real density, Wobbe index, mean molecular mass and compression factor are calculated from composition according to ISO 6976, GPA 2172 or ASTM D3588.

Addition of various other alkane, inorganic gas and aromatics components are possible, with respect  to composition feasibility in terms of vapor pressure, density & phase.
