Gas Pressure Metering and Regulating Units Indigenized

Gas pressure regulating and metering stations have been indigenized by Iranian engineers at Azar Pajouhan Andish Company, a knowledge-based firm in Tehran, the managing director said.
“Reducing and controlling gas pressure is the main function of a pressure regulating station, which is performed by control valves, known as regulators. The measurement of the gas flow rate is also of great importance and is done by different types of turbines or ultrasonic meter equipment,” IRNA quoted Hamid Rostami as saying.
Gas pressure passing through large pipes must be reduced prior to moving into smaller pipelines and distribution systems. Regulator stations are placed along the pipeline to reduce pressure to the appropriate level for each system.
