Fluid Density Tool


Measures fluid density in the measurement window of the tool


Applications

  • Fluid identification
  • Fluid holdup


Features and Benefits

  • Combinable with all high-speed digital (HD) telemetry tools for comprehensive evaluation
  • Long-life Americium source
  • Unaffected by deviation or fluid velocity
  • Compact, versatile, and robust


Tool Description

The Weatherford fluid density tool uses a double-encapsulated, low-energy AM241 source and scintillation-detector assembly to measure fluid density in the measurement window of the tool.

This measurement is unaffected by well deviation or fluid velocity, making it deployable in a wide range of environments. The fluid density tool is a short, robust, and reliable tool that is easily maintained and well-suited to e-line surface readout operations or memory operations on slickline, coil tubing, or tractor.

High voltage to the PMT is adjusted with temperature to maintain sensitivity over the whole temperature range.

The tool uses a dual-channel receiver. The second channel counts high-energy gamma rays from scale or formation, which correct the main channel.
