Pressure reduction & metering stations (PRMSs) at customer plant gates

Custody transfer and health & safety

Each PRMS drops the pressure to the customer’s acceptance requirements and communicates the volumes of gas taken to the control room of the production facilities. Fencing units are being installed around each of the PRMS units |
