Natural gas metering and regulating stations (MR/DR, GRM, IRI, IRID) are particularly critical equipment in natural gas distribution networks. They ensure accurate measurement of quantity, pressure, and gas management.
Certification of station construction ensures proper operation, reliability, and safety throughout the natural gas network.
Ergocert Hellas S.A. provides inspection, testing, and certification services for natural gas metering and regulating stations, ensuring that they comply with applicable standards and legislation (Directive PED 2014/68/EU, ATEX 2014/34/EU, MID 2014/32/EU, FEK 2278/2016).
Inspection & Certification of Natural Gas Stations
The inspection of the construction of the metering and regulating station is carried out upon completion of its construction and before it is put into operation. The inspection process includes:
- Review of the design study
- Verification of compliance of the construction with standards, European directives, and specific customer specifications
- Inspection of all critical station components, such as measuring instruments, pressure regulators, safety valves, and support systems
- Functional tests and measurements to verify station reliability
