Gas quality analysis
A leap forward in natural gas quality analysis, Orbital’s GasPT is an inferential analyzer that delivers Chromatograph-quality property analysis, without the delays, ancillaries or costs of a GC. If you want to rapidly and reliably determine energy content (CV/BTU/HHV/LHV), Wobbe, Compressibility, Relative Density and others, in seconds, then this is the product for you.
Orbital’s VE Technology is a range of revolutionary sampling and process measurement products totally dedicated to sampling perfection and rapid delivery of information to the user. Patented technology that eliminates Vortex induced vibration for Sample Probes and Thermowells is just one of the features that makes VE Technology unique and essential to safe, effective process monitoring.

The innovative use of proven technology combined with industry proven analytical experience has resulted in a breakthrough in measurement − GasPT.
Using three discrete sensors the instrument derives the critical properties of natural gas:
- Density
- Thermal conductivity
- Primary influencing inert gas
Along with the measured elements GasPT infers a composition for the natural gas mixture, which it then uses to calculate gas properties via ISO6976.
