Increasing the Precision in Measurement of the Flow of Petroleum in the Case of Deformation of a Pipeline

The variation in the cross-section of a flow of transported petroleum caused by deformation of a pipeline is estimated. The error of an ultrasonic flowmeter counter for the case in which the current flow cross-section is taken into account is calculated.
