Abstract: A system and method are provided for measuring, at a fluid flow rate gauge, a fluid flow rate returning from a well, for providing, by the fluid flow rate gauge, a fluid flow rate output, for measuring, by a sand flow rate gauge, a sand flow rate of sand entrained in the fluid providing, by the sand flow rate gauge, a sand flow rate output, for receiving, at input circuits of a control system, the fluid flow rate output and the sand flow rate output, for providing, at a display controller of the control system, a display output; receiving, at a display panel, the display output, and for displaying, at the display panel, the fluid flow rate and the sand flow rate, in accordance with at least one embodiment. Embodiments can also include selecting between a first and second plug catcher or a first and second choke.
