collect crude oil. In one implementation, a crude oil collection header
apparatus comprises a collection reservoir. A plurality of fluid conduits
is connected to feed crude oil to the collection reservoir. The fluid
conduits respectively comprise a collection reservoir feed valve, a
bypass valve, and a crude oil feed inlet received between the collection
reservoir feed and bypass valves. A flow meter conduit is connected with
multiple of the plurality of fluid conduits downstream of the respective
bypass valves. A flow meter is operably connected with the flow meter
conduit. A crude oil outlet is associated with the collection reservoir.
