From the wellbore to underground storage, advancing flow measurement across the energy value chain for integrity, efficiency, emissions intelligence, and net-zero operations.
FMTS connects a global community of SPE professionals focused on the science, engineering, and practice of flow measurement – enabling trusted data for production optimization, safety, regulatory reporting, and decarbonization across the energy value chain.
Thank you for visiting the SPE Flow Measurement Technical Section website. Our mission is to share knowledge and best practices on flow-measurement challenges, technology advances, and gaps across the industry. - Amin Amin, FMTS Chair
FMTS advances flow measurement across conventional, unconventional, and low-carbon operations through technical programs, workshops, and global collaboration.
FMTS delivers a steady program of webinars and online events, including the “Practical Aspects of Surface Well Testing” series and sessions on hydrogen-blended natural gas and GHG measurement.
FMTS leads and shapes industry workshops on multiphase flow metering, and partners with other Technical Sections at major SPE conferences.
FMTS connects operators, service companies, manufacturers, researchers, and regulators to share best practices and shape the future of metrology.
From subsurface monitoring to custody transfer and emissions, FMTS covers the full spectrum of flow measurement challenges and technologies.
FMTS is evolving to support SPE’s mission in technical excellence, sustainability, and future-ready skills.
Continue the Surface Well Testing series and additional webinars (funded and self-resourced) to deliver practical, field-ready flow measurement content.
Grow FMTS scope to explicitly cover the metrology of new measurement techniques for methane, CO2, and hydrogen – linking traditional flow metering with the energy transition.
Collaborate with IRMTS to extend flow measurement applications to sandface and wellbore for improved reservoir management and production performance.
Deliver a high-impact special session and reception at ATCE 2025, while executing on plans for the next MPFM Workshop in San Antonio in 2026.
Grow FMTS membership by promoting quality content, highlighting volunteer opportunities, and recognizing contributions across generations and disciplines.
FMTS is led by a diverse board including Chair, Vice Chair, Webmaster, Program, Administrative, Membership, and YP officers, plus directors from multiple regions.
The board meets monthly and follows SPE’s Technical Section Operations Manual and the FMTS Constitution, with a succession plan in place to support smooth transitions and continuity.
FMTS highlights the evolving role of AI, data analytics, and virtual metering in improving flow-measurement accuracy, uncertainty management, and operational decision-making.
Members explore how physics-based models, data-driven techniques, and real-time surveillance can be combined for robust metering solutions.
Whether you are a student, young professional, or experienced specialist, there is a place for you in the Flow Measurement Technical Section.
Joining FMTS is free with your SPE membership. You will receive updates on new webinars, workshops, ATCE activities, and collaboration opportunities.
