Abstract: Fluid flow control systems are configured to resist erosion-corrosion and minimize wall shear stress during injection or production. A fluid flow control system includes a base pipe with an internal passageway. A housing is positioned around the base pipe to define a fluid flow path between the filter component and the internal passageway. A flow control component is positioned within the fluid flow path in order to control fluid flow. A flow-induced erosion resistance component, which may take a variety of forms, is positioned within the fluid flow path to reduce and/or eliminate wall shear stress along the base pipe. As a result, erosion-corrosion of the bases pipe is reduced and/or eliminated altogether.

Abstract: A method includes drawing a fluid into a flow control assembly coupled to a completion string positioned within a wellbore, the flow control assembly including a first fluidic device and a second fluidic device, where the first and second fluidic devices exhibit different flow characteristics. A flow condition of the fluid circulating through the first and second fluidic devices is measured with a plurality of fluid sensors, and a water cut of the fluid is estimated based on the flow condition measured by the plurality of fluid sensors.
