Custody Transfer & Metrology for Oil & Gas — Pro meter
Legal Shield • Engineering • Accredited Labs
📑 Publications
This section brings together articles and materials dedicated to metrology in the oil & gas sector, custody transfer systems, and Legal Shield aspects. We publish not only our own developments, but also links to global research, showcasing the state-of-the-art solutions and challenges that Pro meter works with.
💡 Idea for Development and Co-authorship
A unique engineering and scientific concept, developed and tested in practice. Suitable for:
🔹 Further development and deepening as a thesis, dissertation, or research project
🔹 Development of amendments to OIML, GOST, ISO
🔹 Implementation into industry standards or internal company solutions
✅ What’s Offered
✔️ Opportunity to transfer, develop or sell the idea / co-authorship
✔️ Co-authorship, scientific supervision, consulting
✔️ Involvement with researchers, students, engineers, startups
📌 Topics I’m Ready to Propose
🔸 Methods for verifying accuracy and reliability of metering systems (e.g. oil, gas)
🔸 Material balance audit
🔸 Custody transfer unit audit
🔸 Risk forecasting and how to avoid them
🔸 And much more
💬 Ready to Discuss?
Write to me — I will send a questionnaire and offer possible cooperation formats.
Some ideas have patent potential. Formal contractual collaboration is possible.

📄 Publication: On Multiple Determination of Oil Product Mass
Authors: I.Ya. Yakovlev, E.I. Novikov et al.
Year: 2005
Published in: Proceedings of the Conference “Measurements in the Oil and Gas Industry”
📘 Abstract
This article is dedicated to the application of an indirect statistical method for determining the mass of oil products in vertical tanks.
It discusses the specifics of processing measurement results and the possibility of refining tank calibration tables.
Graphs and practical examples are presented.
❗ Why It Matters
Has potential for further development and adaptation to new requirements
May serve as a basis for amendments to OIML R 110
Relevant for PhD candidates, students, thesis projects
🤝 Possible Collaboration Format
Provision of materials and co-authorship
Joint scientific supervision
Contract-based collaboration and topic refinement upon request
The topic has patent potential — modification of algorithms and formulas for tank calibration
📩 Interested in collaboration? Write to me — I will send a questionnaire and offer cooperation options.
