GPA - STD 2166

Collecting and Handling of Natural Gas Samples for Analysis by Gas Chromatography

active, Most Current
Organization: GPA
Publication Date: 1 January 2022
Status: active
Page Count: 108
scope:

The purpose of the standard is to provide comprehensive guidelines and procedures for properly extracting, collecting, conditioning, and handling a sample from a flowing natural gas stream at or above its dew point temperature and that represents the composition of the vapor-phase portion of the source fluid. This standard considers spot, composite, continuous, online, and mobile sampling systems and does not include sampling of liquid or multiphase streams.
