One of the important variables to monitor hydrocarbon metering is volumetric flow measurements, where measurement errors may significantly impact the operator. This project aims to develop a neural network-based algorithm to predict flow measurement patterns using onshore metering data. After pre-processing and statistical analysis, the metering data is used to train models using Multilayer Perceptron (MLP) and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks. Both models were trained and tested with different combination of input variables and several hyperparametric settings. The best MLP model was trained using Pressure, Temperature and 15 Time-shifted Flow as input variables, yielding a Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) of 0.96. Furthermore, two versions of LSTM models-Time-Series LSTM and Single-layer LSTM - are also trained and tested, giving satisfactory performance with Flow variable as the input. Time-Series LSTM model has a better performance with an MAPE of 0.47. {\^A}{\copyright} 2022 IEEE.}, author = {Hong, D. G. K. and Hisham, S. B. and Yahya, N.}, isbn = {9781665489966} }
