Challenge: Automate water detection for the critical production management of high-rate, multiphase producing wells with H2S content up to 15%–17% by mole.
Solution: Implement inline continuous water
detection and salinity monitoring during flowback operations by integrating the AquaWatcher Surface water salinity sensor in existing installations of Vx Spectra surface multiphase flowmeters.
Results: Detected water at levels down to 50 ppm with automated inline measurement while reducing potential exposure to ultrahigh levels of H2S.
