New Concept in Well Testing: The Compact Cyclone Multiphase System

摘要

A compact cyclone multiphase meter (CCM meter) developedby Statoil and Kv?rner Process Systems utilizes a compactgas liquid cyclone to separate liquid and gas, before individualmeasurement of the two phases by conventional single phaseinstruments, followed by re-mixing downstream of themeasurement section. The most unique feature of this cycloneis the simple control scheme which provides for large turndown ratios. The instrumentation has been implemented intothe water cut analyzer electronics to provide for a completestand alone system. Field test data will be presented alongwith its impact on reservoir management.
