At Swinton Technology, we are aware that there is global commitment needed make the world a more sustainable place. So, we are stepping up to current environmental demands and making necessary changes within our business to be more eco-friendly and reduce our CO2 output. In addition, we are consciously working with energy companies who are doing the same.

By prioritising Emissions Monitoring, companies in the oil and gas industry can strengthen their reputation, attract socially conscious investors, and forge sustainable partnerships, ultimately paving the way for long-term growth and resilience in an increasingly carbon-constrained world.

Our solution provides you with a clear view of your sites emissions along with automated emissions reports, effortlessly.

We offer Live Uncertainty as a standalone solution, added into existing TruST supervisory systems, or as an integrated system for brownfield supervisory upgrades or greenfield installations.

TruST's Live Uncertainty modules provide real-time uncertainty analysis for your metering instruments and systems. As well as assuring that a system is operating in compliance with the contractual requirements, having a live calculation of flow uncertainty provides the following benefits:

  • Meter performance can be optimised
  • Calibration intervals can be extended
  • Warning alarms can be raised as soon as your uncertainty reaches chosen limit.
  • Reduce exposure and cost of operation
  • Mitigate the risk to profitability
  • Enhances the reliability of data

Using an IEC-61131-3 configuration environment, uncertainty function blocks are configured by our engineers to suit your metering architecture. The calculation modules which have the greatest influence on the uncertainty in flow rate (such as DP on an orifice metering system) are calculated at a higher frequency than those which do not change significantly and require more significant processing, such as the sensitivity coefficients. This provides a near real-time update of uncertainty which can be displayed and integrated to provide the uncertainty for a batch or measurement period.

Using our own ST103A Data Acquisition Module (a high precision I/O device), TruST can provide fiscally accurate flow measurement for oil and gas metering, removing the need for traditional flow computers. Removing this additional layer of flow computers allows you to save both capital and operational expenditure, while still retaining measurement accuracy. TruST has positively transformed industry processes and continues to deliver revenue savings for clients across the world.

TruST can be specifically tailored to meet your needs and requirements, and it is unique in its ability to integrate with a range of different flow computer systems, making it an effective choice for all oil or gas measurement installations. Our years of experience in developing metering applications mean we have the skills and know-how to integrate TruST with a wide range of different flow computer devices. Our engineers are experienced in the configuration of most flow computers, including the S600+, OMNI 6000, Flow-X, and the Ex~I SFC 3000. TruST is proven with each of these flow computers and can also be adopted alongside an even wider range of flow measurement devices using Modbus Serial, TCP/IP or OPC protocols.

Access to the TruST system is via individual login accounts, which means your metering information remains secure and only available to a select number of users. All flow measurement data received into TruST is stored securely in the TruST metering database. ST also routinely implement further security enhancements in TruST to align with customer IT and networking requirements.

Unrivalled

TruST is a proven virtual solution for the oil and gas industry, providing measurement accuracy in accordance with ISO, API, EI and OIML standards. This in turn negates the requirement for installing traditional flow computers and reduces both capital and operational costs for our customers.
