ISO10723 EffecTech
ISO10723 EffecTech
Headquartered in the UK, EffecTech is the global leader in gas measurement, providing accredited inspection, calibration and testing services to the energy and power industries for gas quality, flow, and total energy metering. Their highly trained and experienced staff provide fast and effective solutions to all gas measurement requirements.
Accredited by the International Standards Organisation, the United Kingdom Accreditation Service, and the British Standards Institute, EffecTech is recognised around the world as a leader in their field. Synertec is proud to be an EffectTech global partner and represent them in Australia by performing ISO 10723 performance evaluations around the country on their behalf. ISO 10723 defines the methodology for performance evaluation of analytical systems used in the natural gas industry. The standard specifies the process for accurate performance testing of a Gas Chromatograph (GC).

Performance Evaluations
The results from the performance evaluation include response functions for all components, which can be applied to the instrument to correct non-linearity errors, assuring the highest possible level of accuracy.
EffecTech’s proficiency testing schemes provide objective evidence of analytical performance for both laboratory and process methods, which include participants from around the world including:
- Global Gas and LNG (GGLNG) for the natural gas and LNG industries
- Stack Emissions Proficiency Testing Scheme (SEPTS) for companies that provide stack testing services.
The performance evaluations carried out by Synertec on a GC use at least seven reference gases of varying composition covering all the components measured by the GC under test. The GC is used to measure all the reference gases and the results are then sent to EffecTech, where the linearity and repeatability of the GC are established using regression analysis.
Using these parameters, an offline model of the GC is developed to establish the magnitude of the errors and uncertainties when measuring the range of natural gas or Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) passing through the metering point. These errors and uncertainties can be used to demonstrate compliance with contractual requirements or environmental regulations.
Other Metering & Sampling Solutions
Synertec provides engineering support for gas metering which is crucial to ensure accurate measurement and monitoring of gas flow rates and volumes. Synertec provides engineering solutions to support the installation, configuration, and maintenance of gas metering equipment, including flow computers, transmitters, and custody transfer systems.
Synertec’s experience in delivering large scale industrial solutions is supported by our commitment to security, adhering to ISO 27001, Information security, cybersecurity and privacy protection.
