Well flow measurement unit
Well flow measurement unit WFMU — is a specialized module designed for individual measurement of flow rate, pressure and other parameters of the production of individual wells. It is used for precise control of production in oil fields.
Main functions of the WFMU:
- Measurement of volumetric or mass flow rate of oil, gas and water
- Monitoring of pressure, temperature and water content in products
- Automatic recording of parameters for each well
- Transfer of data to metering and dispatching systems (APCS)
Structure of the WFMU:
- Flow meters (mass or volume)
- Sampling unit
- Temperature sensors, pressure sensors and moisture meters
- Piping unit and pipelines
- Automation cabinet and control unit
- Operator interface / SCADA
Application:
- At field multiple well platforms
- For regular flow rate measurement of individual wells
- In production control and optimization systems
- As part of field ACS
The WFMU ensures reliable accounting of well production, helps identify inefficient wells, and enables prompt decision-making to improve field productivity.
