Can we print lists of QuantityWare BCP measurement standards calculation results?
Yes.
In the Petroleum Measurement Cockpit, tab strip “Print Standards Lists”, you display and print lists of volume correction factors (CTL & CPL) and density (“in air” and “in vacuo”) conversion factors of all measurement standards that are implemented by QuantityWare.
Business practice typically requires printed versions of correction factors for inspectors and surveyors during custody transfer of bulk petroleum quantities. Although modern standard implementations are not based on tables anymore, such lists still need to be available to document the quantity calculation procedure and to support custody transfer procedures.
Example: API MPMS Chapter 11.2.4 List:
All lists may be downloaded as PDF documents:
Read BCP Documentation Reference Manual , Chapter 3.2.1.2. for details how to identify the correct standard designation for a material/plant or conversion group.
If you need to analyze a conversion group configuration and compare results with list results (e.g. VCF or base densities), involve your certified QuantityWare BCP consultant for this analysis.
