Advantages of Flexible Flow Measurement in Sub-Metering Of Natural Gas

Unlike oil, natural gas exists in abundance in the United States. Of the natural gas consumed in the United States in 2011, 95%  was produced domestically. The U.S. Energy Information Administration projects U.S. natural gas production to increase from 23.0 trillion cubic feet in 2011 to 33.1 trillion cubic feet in 2040, a 44% increase. Almost all of this increase in domestic natural gas production is due to projected growth in shale gas production, which will grow from 7.8 trillion cubic feet in 2011 to 16.7 trillion cubic feet in 2040.
