74th Annual Appalachian Gas Measurement Short Course
August 5, 6, 7, 8, 2014
Robert Morris University 6001 University Blvd. Moon Township, PA 15108-1189
WWW.AGMSC.ORG Purpose The Appalachian Gas Measurement Short Course was first held in 1938 at West Virginia University. No classes were held from 1942–44 during WWII. The school moved to Robert Morris University in 1976 and is now held annually so people in the industry and government can meet and learn about the field of gas measurement, pressure regulation and odorization. The school seeks to promote increased accuracy of gas measurement and pressure regulation with the aim to further and improve safety, efficiency and appropriate economics so the public will be better served.
Class Information A full schedule of over 90 lecture classes is offered in the following 13 sections: • Fundamentals of Measurement and Regulation • Basics of Measurement and Pressure Control • Advanced Metering Low Volume • Advanced Metering High Volume • Pressure Control • Instrumentation and Automation • General Topics • Production and Storage • Gas Quality • Communications and Scada • Odorization • Current Industry Topics • NGL’s—Wet Gas
“Hands-On” Workshops Workshops will be presented in 22 sections. Class size is limited but additional students may be permitted to attend as observers. Manufacturers, manufacturer’s representatives or employees shall not attend hands-on presentations conducted by competitive manufacturers.
Registration Everyone attending the Short Course and exhibits must register upon arrival and pay a registration fee of $100 per person. • Register on-line before August 1st at www.agmsc.org using a VISA, MC or AMEX. • Mail or fax registration form (back cover) before August 1st, payable by check, VISA or MC. • In person during Registration hours at the school with cash, check, VISA or MC. Each registrant will receive a copy of the Proceedings in book or flash drive form, which contains the papers presented at the 2014 Short Course. Registration Hours: Tuesday 9 AM to 4 PM Wednesday 8 AM to 3 PM (closed during Opening Ceremonies) Thursday 8 AM to 11 AM
Get Acquainted Reception A reception with free snacks and cold beverages will be held for all registrants during the exhibit hours starting at 3:50 PM on Wednesday at the Sewall Center.
Exhibitor Luncheon Lunch will be provided for all registrants free of charge by the Exhibitors on Wednesday and Thursday at Sewall Center from 11:20 AM to 1:30 PM.
Featured Speaker—Eric Giguere Eric is an average guy who had the typical attitude toward safety: “Accidents happen, but not to me”. Until the one that nearly took his life. Now Eric’s mission in life is to make sure the arrogance he had toward safety doesn’t become yours. His message is simple and serious, “This can happen to you.” Eric lectures about his experience and his focus on safety—your safety. He has consulted for many companies, such as ExxonMobil, NiSource, National Grid and Questar Gas. He has spoken at many safety seminars including the American Society of Safety Engineers’ Professional Development Conference, the National Safety Council and the VPPPA. SCHEDULE OF EVENTS
