  • FLOW MEASURING AND MONITORING APPARATUS FOR A SUBSEA TREE
    Publication number: 20240011388
    Abstract: A subsea tree assembly with a flow monitoring and measuring apparatus includes a production wing valve block coupled to a production wing branch, the production wing valve block including a wing block connector, and a fluid processing module including a frame, a module connector including an inlet and an outlet, and a fluid flow loop coupled between the inlet and the outlet, wherein the module connector is fluidicly coupled to the wing block connector. A production fluid flow goes from the production wing valve block and returns to the same block via the wing block connector, the module connector, and the fluid flow loop. A flow monitoring and measuring apparatus for a subsea tree assembly includes a module frame, a module connector connectable to a production wing valve block, the module connector including an inlet and an outlet, and a fluid flow conduit forming a loop from the outlet of the module connector back to the inlet of the module connector.
