Gauging
Accurate production gauging is a fundamental part of daily oilfield operations. American Safety Services provides professional gauging services to oil and gas operators throughout the Permian Basin, giving you reliable, documented fluid measurements you can count on for production reporting, sales reconciliation, and regulatory compliance.
What We Do.
Gauging involves measuring the fluid levels in production tanks and storage vessels to determine the volume of oil, water, and other produced fluids on location. Accurate gauging is critical for tracking daily production, verifying volumes for purchasers, and maintaining lease operating records.
Our gauging services include:
-
Tank Gauging -Measuring oil and produced water levels in production tanks using calibrated gauging equipment to determine exact fluid volumes. All measurements are taken using proper procedure and documented for the customer's records.
-
Opening & Closing Gauges - Performing gauges before and after a sale or transfer to verify volumes and ensure accurate custody transfer documentation.
-
Temperature & Gravity Readings - Recording fluid temperature and API gravity alongside level measurements to allow for volume correction to standard conditions, which is standard practice for oil sales and custody transfer.
-
BS&W Sampling - Taking basic sediment and water (BS&W) samples to measure the quality of produced oil and verify it meets pipeline or purchaser specifications.
-
Daily Production Gauging - Providing scheduled daily gauging services to operators who need consistent, documented production data without dedicating internal personnel to the task.
-
Documentation & Reporting - All gauging results are properly recorded and reported to the customer in a format that supports lease operating statements, production reports, and purchaser requirements.
Our gauging personnel are trained in proper gauging technique, fluid measurement, and documentation standards. We understand the production environment and the importance of accuracy, consistency, and timeliness in everything we record on your behalf.
