Endress+Hauser FLOWSKID | Turnkey Gas Metering Skid for Custody Transfer

The Full-Scale Powerhouse for Global Gas Infrastructure

Beyond Components: A Complete, High-Stakes Custody Transfer Platform

The FLOWSKID is the most comprehensive gas flow metering system available, engineered as a full-scale turnkey solution for high-value custody transfer. Unlike modular metering runs, FLOWSKID provides a fully integrated, engineered platform that includes the physical skid structure, high-performance valves, Gas Chromatographs (GC), and dedicated analyzer shelters or rooms.

Available via Hanyu Zhilian, FLOWSKID systems are designed to meet the world’s most stringent engineering standards, including ASME, ANSI, DIN, and ISO. Whether you are managing LNG Boil-Off Gas (BOG), maritime fuel gas, or massive natural gas distribution networks, FLOWSKID removes the immense burden of multi-vendor project management. Featuring seamless digital integration between the FLOWSIC600-XT and the Flow-X computer, you receive a pre-tested, factory-calibrated station that ensures 100% regulatory compliance and fiscal integrity from day one.

Technical Specifications at a Glance

FLOWSKID vs. Traditional Field Construction

Why FLOWSKID? (Turnkey Efficiency vs. Field Construction)

• Plug-and-Play Installation: FLOWSKID arrives factory-tested and ready for connection. What used to take months of on-site welding and wiring is reduced to simple flange-and-cable hookups.

• Consolidated Project Risk: Eliminate the friction between hardware vendors. Hanyu Zhilian ensures every valve, transmitter, and computer works as a unified system, providing a single point of technical responsibility.

• Superior Quality Control: Every weld and electrical termination is performed in a controlled factory environment, free from the weather-related delays and quality risks of open-field construction.

• Optimized Compact Footprint: Engineered for space-critical applications (such as offshore platforms or LNG terminals), FLOWSKID offers a significantly smaller footprint than non-optimized, site-built layouts.

• Advanced Remote Diagnostics: Integrated supervisory software allows for real-time health monitoring of the entire skid, reducing the need for manual on-site inspections.

Case Study: Offshore LNG Terminal Quick-Start

The Challenge: An offshore LNG operator required a high-pressure (Class 900) custody transfer station capable of real-time gas composition analysis. However, deck space was extremely limited, and the corrosive maritime environment demanded premium materials.

The Hanyu Solution: The operator selected the FLOWSKID turnkey system from hanyuzl.com.

• The Result: We delivered a compact, ruggedized skid pre-fitted with a high-speed Gas Chromatograph and FLOWSIC600-XT sensors.

• The Impact: Because the station was calibrated as a single unit before shipping, offshore commissioning took only 3 days instead of weeks. The operator achieved immediate, accurate billing for their BOG (Boil-Off Gas) recovery, significantly improving ROI.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Does FLOWSKID include the Gas Chromatograph (GC) for energy calculation?
A: Yes. FLOWSKID can be fully integrated with industry-leading GCs to provide real-time gas composition data. This allows the Flow-X computer to calculate energy flow (BTU/Heating Value) in accordance with AGA 5 or ISO 6976.

Q2: Can the skid be designed for hazardous areas?
A: Absolutely. Every component on the FLOWSKID is selected and certified for the specific hazardous area rating (ATEX, IECEx, or Class/Div) of your site, including the integrated analyzer shelters.

Q3: How does Hanyu Zhilian support international projects?
A: We specialize in the technical selection, logistics, and documentation required for global infrastructure projects. Our team ensures the FLOWSKID meets both international standards and your specific local grid requirements.

Q4: Is my project data protected?
A: Yes. At Hanyu Zhilian, we adhere to a strict Privacy Policy. All technical data and commercial inquiries shared via hanyuzl.com are used solely for consulting and fulfillment purposes.
