Meter skids are primarily used to measure the production of gas on wells that hardly produce any liquids. It measure the gas flow rate for production accounting purposes. These are typically very basic units installed on wells with dry gas. A typical application would be coal bed methane. These units typically come with a skid, meter run, isolation valves, and a building.

They are used to measure and control the flow of liquids and gases in the production process. Meter skids are designed to accurately measure the flow rate and volume of the fluid or gas stream, and provide information that is critical to the safe and efficient operation of the production process.

Meter skids typically consist of a combination of flow meters, valves, and other components, and are custom designed to meet the specific requirements of the oil and gas production process. They may be made from materials such as carbon steel, stainless steel, or other corrosion-resistant materials, and are designed to withstand the harsh conditions of the oil and gas industry, including high temperatures and corrosive gases.

Meter skids play a critical role in the oilfield process equipment industry, as they help to optimize production and ensure that the correct amount of fluid or gas is delivered to each process or piece of equipment. They also help to minimize downtime and increase efficiency by reducing the risk of equipment failure or process interruption.

Overall, meter skids are a crucial component of the oilfield process equipment industry, and play an important role in ensuring the safe and efficient operation of the production process.
