Aberdeenshire-based GM Flow Management Services Ltd is launching a new automated technology to accurately and safely measure flow and analyse flow data at offshore oil and gas installations.

The start-up business, which is supported by Scottish Enterprise, is gearing up for rapid growth after the completion of successful field tests.

Its technology is based around two metering products which are said to be safer, more robust and more accurate than others on the market — and with a smaller footprint.

Established in 2014, the company has been developing a range of flow measurement services and products to support production, exploration and well services operations.

Managing director Gavin Munro said: “We are confident that we have an intelligent but simple solution to the challenges of getting accurate flow data and then using the analysis more effectively.

“We are aiming to become the industry’s new standard in gas flow measurement metering and, as a result, to grow the company significantly in the UK and overseas.

"Our expert team helps customers to fully understand and manage their flow measurement requirements; whether it be for fixed or portable well testing separator, custody transfer, gas-lift, fuel gas or high-pressure gas re-injection.”

From robust test and production separator applications to intelligent flow meters to accurately analyse gas and water injection, GM Flow designs (www.gmflow.co.uk), develops and delivers new technology and invaluable expertise for both onshore and offshore installations around the globe.
