  • MULTI-PHASE CHARACTERIZATION USING DATA FUSION FROM MULTIVARIATE SENSORS
    Publication number: 20210201178
    Abstract: A method for determining a wellbore fluid phase includes receiving, from a first sensor, first fluid data for a fluid flowing through a wellbore. The method also includes receiving, from a second sensor, second fluid data for the fluid. The method further includes determining, based at least in part on the first fluid data, a first fluid property. The method also includes determining, based at least in part on the second fluid data, a second fluid property. The method further includes determining a relationship between the first fluid property and the second fluid property, the relationship based at least in part on respective evaluations of the first fluid property with respect to a first threshold and the second fluid property with respect to a second threshold. The method includes determining, based at least in part on the relationship, a phase of the fluid.
