Abstract: The present application provides a method and system for the characterization of properties of liquids, particularly petroleum and petroleum liquids. The method and system can be used to take measurements of the liquid directly in a storage container, without exposing the contents of the container to the external environment.

Abstract: A method for identifying imbalances in facility operations. The method includes determining an existence of an imbalance between a first volume of a component at a first point in the facility and a second volume of the component at a second point in the facility, calculating a probability likelihood of the imbalance being caused by one or more likely errors of a set of known likely errors, determining an impact magnitude on the imbalance of each of the one or more likely errors, and assigning an importance ranking to each of the one or more likely errors based on the probability likelihood and the impact magnitude.
