  • Patent number: 10393561
    Abstract: An improved solution for estimating the flow rate of a fluid in a line of a hydrocarbon production installation, during production. Systems and methods for producing hydrocarbons on a line of a hydrocarbon production installation can include at least two devices adapted each for providing an estimate of the flow rate of a fluid in the line based on respective data. The devices include at least one metric counter, and the data relative to the provision of an estimate of the flow rate by the metric counter include a measurement done by at least one sensor of the metric counter on the fluid. Further, data can be determined relative to the provision of an estimate of the flow rate by the devices, and a DVR process involving the determined data, the reconciliation being conditioned by at least a substantial equality between the estimates of the flow rate of the fluid.
