Improvements In Multiphase Flow Measurement

摘要

Applying this technology to the subsea environment presents some difficult challenges. For example, since subsea multiphase meters require fluid properties as input, variations in the input properties from the stream's actual properties lead to errors in flow measurement. Ideally, one would monitor the properties at the meter and provide real time input. But we're not there yet. In fact, subsea sampling isn't really done except under very specialized circumstances.
