CA 2661887

A method and apparatus for determining the density and phase fractions of well services fluids is shown including an x-ray generator, a sample cell, and a radiation detector. Radiation is passed through the sample cell and fluid and the attenuated radiation signal is used to evaluate the fluid. In one embodiment, a reference radiation detector measures a filtered radiation signal and controls the acceleration voltage and/or beam current of the x-ray generator using this information. The apparatus may be permanently affixed for long term monitoring or temporarily clamped on to a pipe in production.

L'invention concerne un appareil et un procédé pour déterminer la densité et les fractions de phase de fluides de traitement de puits. Ledit appareil comporte un générateur de rayons X, une cellule d'échantillon et un détecteur de rayonnement. Le rayonnement passe à travers la cellule d'échantillon et le fluide; le signal de rayonnement atténué est utilisé pour évaluer le fluide. Dans un mode de réalisation, un détecteur de rayonnement de référence mesure un signal de rayonnement filtré et contrôle la tension d'accélération et/ou le courant de faisceau du générateur de rayons X à l'aide de ces informations. L'appareil peut être fixé de façon permanente pour une surveillance de longue durée ou serré de façon temporaire sur un tuyau en production.
