    This document summarizes chapters from the API Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards, which provides standards for measuring petroleum products. It describes chapters that outline procedures for calibrating upright cylindrical tanks using optical reference lines or optical triangulation methods. Other chapters cover calibrating horizontal cylindrical tanks using manual methods according to ISO standards. The complete manual costs over $9,000 but individual chapters can be purchased separately.
