Abstract

Summary This paper discusses technical and practical aspects on the future needs for monitoring of flow conditions in deviated and horizontal production and injection wells. A monitoring technique based on ultrasound has been developed. Examples of measurements in various North Sea wells are presented. The results are promising, and show the potentials of nonintrusive techniques for flow monitoring. It is expected that a combination of several sensor principles would facilitate the interpretation of downhole flow conditions.
