Run an automated custody transfer reconciliation between refinery and pipeline operator based on verified flow measurement at the transfer point. Anchored flow data reconciles custody transfer volumes between the two parties on data both trust, so small measurement discrepancies no longer accumulate into disputed amounts.
Turn accumulating measurement discrepancies into an automatic reconciliation on data both parties trust.
01.
External Data Oracles anchor flow measurement at the custody transfer point, so the volume that determines billing rests on data both parties can verify.
02.
The refinery and pipeline operator reconcile against the same anchored measurement, so a transfer volume is agreed rather than contested.
03.
The Audit Logs module flags any measurement discrepancy at the transfer point, stopping small differences from accumulating into large disputed amounts.
04.
Escrow and Conditional Settlement settles the reconciled volume between parties, removing the manual measurement dispute process.
05.
Every transfer measurement and reconciliation is retained, giving both parties a verifiable history of custody volumes over time.
06.
Because both parties settle on shared measurement data, disputes over refinery-to-pipeline custody volumes are eliminated at source.
Follow a single refinery-to-pipeline transfer from flow measurement through reconciliation to automatic settlement.

Cerulea decomposes custody measurement reconciliation into modular contracts. Each layer anchors flow, matches parties, checks discrepancy, and settles automatically.
Automated custody measurement reconciliation is a horizontal capability. Here is how different actors at the transfer point put the shared ledger to work.
Settle product transfers on measurement both parties trust, ending the accumulating discrepancies and disputes that came from unmatched custody meters.
Key Asset Types
Confirm received volumes against a shared measurement and settle automatically, replacing contested manual reconciliation with an agreed transfer record.
Key Asset Types
Audit custody transfers from one measurement record, confirming volumes were reconciled fairly without collecting figures from each party.
Key Asset Types
Whether you are bridging custody metering systems or reading directly from the transfer-point flow computer, Cerulea routes both into one reconciliation ledger.
For operators on legacy custody metering systems. Measurement data is translated into signed on-chain transfer records through the API gateway.

Building custody measurement reconciliation with verified flow, two-party matching, and automatic settlement from scratch requires specialised engineers and long integration cycles. Calculate your exact deployment speed using Cerulea.

The legacy timeline reflects custody settlement integration benchmarks. Wiring custody metering, building custom reconciliation logic, and shipping automatic settlement for an average transfer point takes a baseline of 7 months. Building the same architecture on Cerulea takes a baseline of 2 weeks, because Cerulea Studio visually translates your measurement and settlement rules into pre-audited WebAssembly binaries and provisions the reconciliation ledger instantly.
