  • Systems and Methods for Measuring Inflow in a Well
    Publication number: 20200131899
    Abstract: Systems and methods for deploying a sensor ball into a well are disclosed. The ball is buoyant and can carry sensors within. A dissolvable or otherwise removable weight can be attached to the ball such that the ball can sink to a desired depth and when the weight is removed the ball can passively float back to the surface. As the ball floats past inflow stages an accelerometer in the ball records data, allowing better decisions to be made about which stages are producing and which are not.
