The UK Department for Trade and Industry is establishing standards for flow measurement as LNG imports to Britain are set to rise. Asaad Kenbar, of Scotland-based TUV NEL, explains the latest developments.

Natural Gas is the largest element of the UK’s primary energy supply, and gas-fired power plants are the main method of power generation.
