Exhibit description

During the process of gas generation, knowing how much gas has already been produced is vital.

This requires the use of a complex device, in which rotors shaped like the figure of eight rotate while connected with gear wheels. This device is actually a gas meter. The gas meters found in our homes have a similar design to those used in the gasworks.
