Coastal Flow Measurement Releases Whitepaper on EGM Outsourcing

HOUSTON, Nov. 09, 2017 -- The Coastal Flow Measurement family of companies today released their newest whitepaper, “When Measurement Really Matters…Consider the Benefits of EGM Outsourcing,” authored by long-time industry veteran Mark Fillman, Coastal Flow’s President.  The whitepaper provides a contemporary overview of how business process automation (BPA), in combination with advanced integrated hydrocarbon measurement processes, allows both large and small natural gas producers to achieve highly cost-effective electronic gas measurement (EGM) through outsourcing.

The whitepaper addresses measurement policies & procedures, staffing, departmental operational expenses, as well as EGM data management and processing considerations.  These elements are critical regardless of whether production measurement is an in-house expense center or outsourced service.  By adhering to industry best practices while fully automating and integrating the production measurement process, companies can achieve significant bottom-line benefits while ensuring highly accurate, accountable, and timely close-out of monthly production data.

Jayson Payne, Vice President of Digital Operations for Coastal Flow, said, “During development of our Production iMeasurement service, we’ve drawn from five decades of industry experience combined with advanced process development and systems integration in natural gas measurement.  This has allowed us to create a unique outsourcing service for producers of all sizes which offers substantial economic and operational benefits.  This whitepaper describes many of the key technical and functional considerations which underlie the EGM outsourcing value proposition.”
