A new research study from Flow Research, Volume X: The World Market for Flowmeters, 5th Edition finds that the worldwide new-technology flowmeter market totaled US$4 billion in 2013 and is projected to grow substantially to exceed $5.7 billion by 2018…
Emerson Process Management released an injection control application designed for the FloBoss 107 flow computer and ROC800-Series remote operations controller designed to accurately measure and control water or steam delivered to injection wells…
As the industry advances into ultra-deepwater, an increasing number of tight tolerance wells require an efficient system for determining early influxes or losses during drilling, tripping, and cementing operations. Scott Hilliard of Statoil and Florian Le Blay…
TGS has is to start two multi-client geochemical seafloor sampling and seep studies offshore Canada and in the Barents Sea. Sampling locations for both programs were identified using recently acquired multi-client seismic data. The Labrador…
Drill floor operations on the Rowan Norway. Image from Xcite Energy. Work on the Bentley heavy oil field in the North Sea showed the significance of experimental data when unconventional fluids are expected to be transported through pipelines…
Emerson Process Management has opened a flow loop facility for Roxar technologies in Stavanger. The new facility will increase production capacity and drive future developments in multiphase meters, enabling oil and gas operators to access…
As the deepwater prospects being drilled today address ever more complex conditions, the drilling industry needs to adjust its technology to address the challenges that arise. The use of conventional “open to atmosphere” drilling methods…
Accurate measurement of the output of wet gas fields is an important means of reducing the financial risks that exploration and production (E&P) companies face in sales gas allocation. Ultrasonic flow meter technology is proven for dry…
Charles Wemyss discusses positive displacement meters and how they can benefit flow measurement in chemical injection applications. VFF meter. Images: Litre Meter Keeping up with the global…
Chevron Energy Technology Company and GE Oil & Gas have formed a technology alliance to develop and commercialize technologies for the oil and gas industry. TheChevron GE Technology Alliance will build on existingcollaboration between…
Schlumberger released the Vx Spectra surface multiphase flowmeter, which enables operators to obtain flow rate measurements in production testing and permanent monitoring. The Vx Spectra 19mm monitors low-rate producing wells down to 30 b/d…
A European consortium, led by NEL in the UK, has been awarded a three year research project to establish a reference measurement network and standards aimed at improving the accuracy of subsea multiphase flow measurement for the oil and gas industry…
Scotland’s NEL center will launch a new multiphase flow measurement test facility by year’s end. A second, able to operate at up to 150bar, is under development. Elaine Maslin paid a visit to learn more. NEL’s laboratories were originally set up in the 1940s…
Schlumberger released the Vx Spectra surface multiphase flowmeter. The new multiphase flowmeter enables operators to obtain flow rate measurements in production testing and permanent monitoring. “A precise production allocation requires…
