In addition, a delivery/receipt summary report shall be printed at the end of the batch per the template in the attachment of this document. Each delivery/receipt summary report shall have a distinct number in the MSC for the metering system. The batch setup stack shall provide an option for setting up to 10 batches. The batch setup stack shall accept for each batch batch ID, product and batch size. This shall be adjusted automatically upon completion of the current batch. It shall also provide a batch end warning alarm based on the percentage of delivery. This shall be configurable by the operator.

7.3.3
Batch Reporting a) The delivery/receipt summary report template as provided in the attachment of this document has all required data from daily tickets for each meter used during the batch. The delivery/receipt summary report has a unique number as input during batch setup and shall be traceable in the MSC archive. The daily delivery within a running batch is to be corrected for variations in the product quality. This is performed either by accepting the daily reading of the densitometer or inputting the lab density/API. The MSC shall provide the operator with an option for accepting the daily density as measured by the densitometer (densitometer functioning correctly) or inputting the lab density/API. In the event of the operator not accepting daily tickets, the MSC shall allow up to 4 daily tickets to be held for acceptance. Upon the completion of the 5th days delivery, if 4 tickets are awaiting acceptance, the MSC shall automatically accept the oldest ticket. This action is continued for any tickets awaiting acceptance in the currently running batch or batch that has completed.

7.4
Proving 7.4.1 7.4.2 The MSC shall allow line-up of any meter for proving operation regardless of whether it is on delivery or not. The process value for the prover flow control valve (FCV) shall come from the meter selected for proof in the MSC. The ability to change modes, enter a percent (%) output and set points, shall be available through the MSC. Upon an abort, the appropriate warning shall be generated and printed on the alarm printer. The failed proof report shall be saved in the MSC failed report section for the meter. Following an aborted proof, the master MSC shall reset all conditions to enable another proof to be requested. Any failed proof shall be rejected and stored to the meters proof failed archive. For a successful official proof, all relevant proof data shall be communicated to the concerned flow computers and proving report shall be stored and printed automatically for the meter.

Each meter must have its own set of distinct reports (ticket, proving report, delivery/receipt summary report, failed proofs, etc.) for easy reviewing and printing. The operator shall be able to print any report in the MSC archive. It shall be possible for all reports to be displayed on an MSC screen as well as print to a report printer. Out-of-range and unknown status inputs and associated calculated blocks shall be flagged by a special character such as a question mark or other reserved symbol. Numerical values shall not be used.

Document Responsibility: Custody Measurement Issue Date: 2 May 2009 Next Planned Update: 9 March 2013 EXPLANATION OF METER TICKET Commentary Note:
For ticket purposes, the terms "delivery" and "receipt" are defined from the perspective of the bulk plant or refinery. A transfer to a pipeline or marine vessel at a refinery or bulk plant is considered a delivery from the refinery or bulk plant, and a transfer from a pipeline or marine vessel to a bulk plant is considered a receipt at the bulk plant. A new ticket shall be initiated upon delivery or receipt of a new batch; automatically at a configurable date/time and/or daily time; or when manually initiated by the operator. The ticket is printed after the operator inputs a manual density, or designates use of the density from the density meter. DELIVERY Marked "X" when meter is designated as a delivery meter in the metering system computer or flow computer, as applicable. RECEIPT - Marked "X" when meter is designated as a receipt meter in the metering system computer or flow computer, as applicable. METER TICKET NUMBER Flow computer generated number. Numbers for each meter are consecutively assigned by the metering system computer beginning with 12:00 midnight of the 1st day of each year. OFFICIAL The report is marked "(X) OFFICIAL" if the operator designates the metering activity as an "official" transfer. UNOFFICIAL The report is marked "(X) UNOFFICIAL" if the operator designates the metering activity as a non-transfer. RECALCULATED Marked "X" whenever the operator commands a recalculation of the ticket following input or acceptance of the density data. ACCEPTED Marked "X" when the operator accepts the ticket. After a ticket has been accepted, the MSC shall prohibit recalculation. LOCATION - Alpha-numeric value entered in the metering system computer during initialization. PRINT DATE/TIME - Date and time when ticket is printed. DELIVERED TO/RECEIVED FROM - Alpha-numeric value entered in the metering system computer during initialization. METER MANUFACTURER, SIZE, MODEL - Alpha-numeric values entered in the metering system computer during initialization. METER TAG NO., SERIAL NO., NOMINAL K FACTOR - Alpha-numeric values entered in the flow computer during initialization. PRIMARY FLOW COMPUTER Alpha-numeric tag number from the flow computer performing the ticket calculations. 1 BATCH NUMBER - Entered by operator or from metering system computer.
