THE PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED
Domestic enterprises of gas production, oil production, and chemical
industry should be equipped with modern domestic measuring tools of gas
flow.
The problem to measure natural gas flow in trunk pipelines mainly
includes import substitution.
A lot of devices measuring oil-associated gas flow is required today due
to decision about elimination of gas torches.
Domestic chemical industry is about to large-scale automation of
technological processes. Therefore devices for operative gas and liquid
flow measurement are required.

TARGET MARKET
General growing demand in the field
of flow meters takes place. And there
is similar growth of demand for
ultrasonic flow meters.
(Flowresearch Inc. 9…15% per year)
Advantages of flow meters by “Ultrametr” allow to expect 2 to 7% of
market in RF, CIS, EC. Gas-extraction, gas-transport, gas-distributing, gas
consumption enterprises: 8,000 pcs/year (5.5 bln. ). Oil-extraction:₱ 10,000
pcs/year (4.8 bln. ). Chemical, food, process, power industries:₱ 10,000
pcs/year (18.5 bln. ).₱
The following companies are interested in purchasing ultrasonic
technologies developed by the “Ultrametr” company: EPO SIGNAL
(Russia), Katronic Technologies Ltd. (Great Britain), INNOTECH (Russia)

Single hardware platform – three target devices.
1.Clamp-On ultrasonic flow meter of natural gas
for trunk pipelines (“РГУ Ультраметр”).
2.Clamp-On ultrasonic correlative flow meter of
oil-associated gas.
3.Multi-channel flow meter of gases and liquids
for chemical industries based on high-
performance clamp-on ultrasonic transducer.

BENEFITS
1. Owing to patented extraction technique of signal passed through gas,
an opportunity is implemented to fulfill measurement under low
pressure down to zero gauge pressure. It discovers a new market
segment for these devices directed to consumers of low pressure gas.
2. Owing to know-how implemented in correlative technique, it will
possible to measure oil-associated gas flow when liquid oil fractions
“slip” in pipe.
3. Owing to patented device of ultrasonic transducer (one patent) power
of outgoing pulse is 700 to 900 times higher. It allows to produce
multi-channel systems with low cost of one measuring channel.

BUSINESS MODEL
1. The first contract on 15 devices for trunk applications is concluded.
Price of one device is 10 000 €. Costs of manufacture is approx.5 000 €.
2. License agreement with the “Katronic” company is concluded to
manufacture and sell the devices for trunk pipelines abroad.
3. Outsourcing manufacturing of the devices and subsequent selling
them to low pressure gas consumers are supposed (thermal power
stations, glass-works, asphalt-mixing plants, gas distributive stations,
and so on).
4. For these purposes, marketing research should be done to find
interested consumers. Agreement is concluded with one chemical
enterprise to deliver a trial multi-channel system.
