Although the EMR from electrical and electronic devices is typically measured for practical, every-day situations, every object, including humans, emanates energy. ), has been selected to supply a Ultrasonic ultrasonic /ul·tra·son·ic/ (-son´ik) beyond the upper limit of perception by the human ear; relating to sound waves having a frequency of more than 20,000 Hz. ul·tra·son·ic adj. 1. Custody Transfer flow measurement solution for the $8.9 billion PetroChina West to East Natural Gas Pipeline (WEPP WEPP Water Erosion Prediction Project WEPP West-East China Gas Pipeline Project WEPP Western Education and Public Planning ). Ranked as one of the largest pipelines to be built in the world, the 4,000 Km pipeline will transport natural gas from the Tarim Basin in the northwest region
The Northwest Region of Xijiang to Shanghai, China's largest city. Engineered using Daniel(R) flow measurement equipment, the Emerson contract value is estimated to be $7 million. PetroChina has completed a joint framework agreement with Shell, ExxonMobil, Gazprom, Hong Kong Hong Kong (hŏng kŏng), Mandarin Xianggang, special administrative region of China, formerly a British crown colony (2005 est. pop. 6,899,000), land area 422 sq mi (1,092 sq km), adjacent to Guangdong prov. and China Gas for participation in the project.
