Summary of this proficiency test:

On 16 March 2016 the proficiency test on Natural Gas  started with 61 participants from 32 different countries.

On that date, the samples were dispatched to the laboratories. Enclosed to the samples were the instructions to the participants for this proficiency test and the material safety data sheet (MSDS).

The samples can be analyzed on: Methane, Ethane, Propane, n-Butane, iso-Butane, Carbon dioxide, Nitrogen, Carbon Content, Caloric Value , Density, Relative Density, Wobbe index.

The deadline for reporting results is set on 22 April 2016. A laboratory that sends in results after deadline will definitely not get direct feedback in case any of its results are suspect! So be in good time to get the most out of this proficiency test.
