Water salinity sensor

AquaWatcher Surface water salinity sensor

Automate your salinity determination

The AquaWatcher Surface water salinity sensor determines water salinity in real time by employing microwave sensor technology to continuously measure water conductivity in wet gas and multiphase (water-continuous) flow.

This automated high-resolution measurement across the full range of the gas volume fraction reduces your operating costs by eliminating manual water sampling and analysis.

New insight to your produced water

Salinity determination across the full range of the gas volume fraction has many applications:

  • identify the origin of produced water
  • monitor change in the water type during well cleanup or flowback operations
  • reliably detect first water as droplets to support flow assurance management of hydrate formation and occurrence of scale and corrosion
  • measure inhibitor concentration ratio to optimize water management.

Seamless integration with the Vx Spectra flowmeter improves your flow rate calculation

The AquaWatcher Surface sensor’s full integration capability with the Vx Spectra surface multiphase flowmeter means you can include continuously updated water salinity in your flow rate calculation. Having highly representative continuous salinity data increases the accuracy of the flow rate calculation beyond what is possible when using periodic manual data.
