API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards
API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards
For more than 90 years, API has led the development of petroleum, natural gas and petrochemical equipment and operating standards. These represent the industry’s collective wisdom on everything from drill bits to environmental protection and embrace proven, sound engineering and operating practices and safe, interchangeable equipment and materials. API maintains more than 700 standards and recommended practices. Many have been incorporated into state and federal regulations and they are also the most widely cited standards by the international regulatory community
API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards currently maintains a comprehensive Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS). This manual is an ongoing project, as new chapters and revisions of old chapters will be released periodically.
