CA 2515233

A measurement system (200) is disclosed comprising a Coriolis flow meter (222) and a control system (224). A base fluid (250) is first flowed through the Coriolis flow meter. The Coriolis flow meter measures a density of the base fluid and transmits a base fluid density measurement to the control system. A proppant (252) is then added to the base fluid to create a fracture fluid (202). The fracture fluid is then flowed through the Coriolis flow meter. The Coriolis flow meter measures a density of the fracture fluid and transmits a fracture fluid density measurement to the control system. The control system determines an amount of proppant in the fracture fluid based on the base fluid density measurement, the fracture fluid density measurement, and a density of the proppant.

La présente invention concerne un système de mesure (200) comprenant un débitmètre de Coriolis (222) et un système de régulation (224). Un liquide de base (250) circule tout d'abord à travers un débitmètre de Coriolis. Le débitmètre de Coriolis mesure la densité du liquide de base et transmet une mesure de densité de liquide de base au système de régulation. Un agent de soutènement (252) est ajouté au liquide de base pour produire un liquide de fracturation (202). Le liquide de fracturation passe alors à travers le débitmètre de Coriolis. Le débitmètre de Coriolis mesure la densité du liquide de fracturation et transmet une mesure de densité de liquide de fracturation au système de régulation. Le système de régulation détermine une quantité d'agent de soutènement dans le liquide de fracturation sur la base de la mesure de densité de liquide de base, de la mesure de densité de liquide de fracturation et de la densité de l'agent de soutènement.
