This paper presents the history and current status of multiphase metering of the production from the five sub sea wells of the Urd field. The Urd field is a satellite field to the Nome FPSO and the Urd stream is processed onboard Nome. The production from the Urd field was started in November 2005. The Urd field consists of two sub sea templates, "Svale" and Staer", and the distance to the Nome FPSO is respectively nine and five kilometres. Each of the five production wells is equipped with a multiphase meter and the total Urd stream is measured in a topside multiphase meter at Nome. Furthermore it is possible to route the Urd stream through a test separator with state of the art metering equipment. The oil from the "Svale" skid has high density and viscosity whereas the oil from the "Staer" is lighter and quite similar to the oil from the Nome field.
