## Description

You can now bring professional-grade fluid measurement engineering directly into your AI client. This MCP provides the specific mathematical frameworks and standards required for custody transfer applications. Instead of manually checking API MPMS compliance, you can task your agent with selecting the right meter for a specific flow rate or calculating the necessary multipliers to adjust raw readings to standard conditions. It handles the heavy lifting of quantifying system error through uncertainty analysis and ensures your hardware meets certification requirements by checking prover accuracy. Whether you are designing a new measurement skid or verifying an existing setup, this MCP ensures your calculations stay within the rigorous tolerances required for high-stakes fluid transfers.

## Tools

### calculate_correction_factors
This tool calculates the specific multipliers required to adjust raw fluid readings to standard conditions.

### select_meter
Use this to identify the most suitable metering technology for your specific application requirements.

### perform_uncertainty_analysis
This tool provides a full breakdown of the total measurement error for your entire system.

### verify_prover_accuracy
This tool checks if a specific prover has the precision needed to certify a meter.

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
What meter should I use for crude oil with a flow rate between 100 and 500 units and a target uncertainty of 0.001?
```

**Response:** 
```
The recommended technology is a Coriolis meter, which provides a suitability score of 0.95 for this specific application.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the corrected volume for 1000 cubic meters at 25 degrees Celsius, 10 bar pressure, and 850 kg/m3 density.
```

**Response:** 
```
The corrected volume is 1005.42 cubic meters, using a correction factor of 1.00542.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Is a prover with 0.0005 uncertainty sufficient for a meter requiring 0.001 uncertainty?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the prover is compliant with a safety margin of 0.0005.
```

## Capabilities

### Technology Selection
Your agent picks the best meter type based on your flow and uncertainty targets.

### Standardized Calculations
The MCP applies API MPMS standards to all correction factor math.

### Error Quantification
Your agent runs uncertainty analysis to find the total system error.

### Hardware Verification
The tool checks if your prover meets the precision needed for meter certification.

## Use Cases

### New System Design
Use the MCP to select the right meter and calculate expected uncertainty for a new custody transfer skid.

### Compliance Auditing
Verify that your existing measurement setup and provers meet required precision standards.

### Volume Correction
Quickly adjust raw volume readings to standard conditions using precise multipliers.

### Error Budgeting
Perform a full uncertainty analysis to understand the total error in a measurement chain.
