Abstract: An insertable flow meter assembly includes a flow measuring device configured to be inserted into a flow passage of a receiving structure. The flow measuring device is configured to enable determination of a flow rate of fluid through the flow passage, the flow measuring device is formed as a single continuous structure, and an outer cross-section of at least a portion of the flow measuring device is configured to be substantially the same as an inner cross-section of the flow passage. The insertable flow meter assembly also includes an end cap configured to engage an exterior surface of the receiving structure and to couple to the receiving structure at an end of the flow passage. The end cap is configured to block movement of the flow measuring device out of the end of the flow passage.

Abstract: A temperature sensor assembly for measuring temperature of a fluid in a conduit, the assembly comprising a temperature sensor and a thermowell housing the temperature sensor and embedded in a wall defining the conduit. The thermowell has a face for interfacing the fluid that is substantially non-intrusive relative the conduit and a groove that extends radially inward of the thermowell housing to minimize the cross-sectional area of the thermowell body proximate the location of the temperature sensor.

Abstract: An assembly for monitoring particulate in a production fluid. The assembly supports routing of production fluid through a restriction and to a strategically located detector downstream and adjacent the restriction. Further, the detector incorporates acoustic attenuating features to provide a tailored detection focused on acoustics directly from particulate in the fluid. These features may include the use of a transducer housing with a ribbed profile to achieve the attenuation. Although, other types of attenuating techniques may be employed.

Abstract: A reference measurement apparatus for a multiphase flow meter comprising: a sampling and measuring chamber coupled to a sampling port via a sample transfer line for extracting the sample having at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase from the multiphase fluid mixture flowing through the pipe section; a pressure and temperature regulation arrangement arranged to maintain the sample from the sampling port to the sampling and measuring chamber at a pressure/temperature substantially similar to the pressure/temperature of the multiphase fluid mixture flowing through the pipe section; and a second fraction measurement device arranged to estimate a linear attenuation related to the at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase extracted from the sample, said linear attenuation being used to correct the estimated representative fraction for the at least one of the gas phase and the liquid phase of the multiphase fluid mixture.

Abstract: A flow meter apparatus and method are presented for measuring a flow rate of a multiphase fluid mixture comprising at least one gas phase and one liquid phase. The flow meter comprises a pipe section and measurement section through which the mixture flows. The flow meter also comprises a fraction measurement device adapted to estimate a representative fraction of the gas phase and/or liquid phase of the mixture passing at the measurement section. Moreover, the flow meter preferably comprises at least one ultrasonic sensor arranged to estimate a characteristic, such as liquid film thickness or velocity, of a portion of the liquid phase flowing as liquid film along a wall of the pipe section.

Abstract: An apparatus (1) for measuring at least one characteristic value of a multiphase fluid mixture (13) comprises: a pipe section (20) having a main flow path through which the multiphase fluid mixture (13) flows, the main flow path comprising a throat (22) between an upstream part (21) and a downstream part (23) of the main flow path such as to generate a pressure drop between the upstream part (21) and the downstream part (23); a first sensing arrangement (28, 33, 29, 34, 35, 36) to measure a first characteristic value of the multiphase fluid mixture (13) flowing into the main flow path; -a channel (25) being positioned within the wall of the pipe section (20) such as to maintain similar operating conditions as in the main flow path, the channel (25) being coupled to the main flow path by an inlet (24) at the up-stream part (21), or the throat (22), and by an outlet (26) at the downstream part (23), or the throat (22), such that the pressure drop generates an aspiration effect diverting a sample of the multipha
