History, Theory, Function and Limitations Why Coriolis Meters? Understanding Coriolis meter technology starts with knowing their capabilities: mass flow measurement, high accuracy and no moving parts design. Most flow meter technologies measure volume or velocity while Coriolis Meters directly measure mass. Since many consumers purchase media by weight, direct measurement of mass appeals to producers…
The Drag Reducing Agent Injection Challenge Drag reducing agent injection presents a challenge particularly when selecting the key component solutions. The characteristics of drag reducing agents (DRA) make it a notoriously difficult injection application to pump and meter. The shear thickening long-chain polymers tend to drop out of suspension in the carrier fluid causing solids…
Application Various chemicals are injected into deep water wells to prevent corrosion, paraffins, hydrates, and scale. The flow rates for the injection are generally very low and need to be metered precisely to prevent under or over-dosing. TASI Products Supplied Challenge As oil exploration moves into deeper water and deeper reservoirs, new challenges arise that…
