  • Acoustic transducer system for monitoring well production
    Patent number: 6354146
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring properties of fluid flowing through a bore, using a signal transmitted substantially perpendicularly to the direction of flow. A preferred embodiment uses a pair of acoustic transducers mounted in the annular body of the fluid conduit. The tool is constructed so as to be able to operate for a period of years in a downhole environment without maintenance or replacement. An transducer is also described that is adapted to fit within the dimensions of an annular body without suffering a reduction in the length of the transducer backing.
