McCrometer’s rugged V-Cone Flowmeter for enhanced oil recovery applications features a wide turndown, small footprint, and no maintenance, the company says. These features reduce total installed costs and operating lifecycle costs while improving crude oil production efficiency.
Accurate measurement of the injected media maximizes crude oil production while reducing overinjection that can occur when other flowmeter technologies wear and begin under-reading, according to the company. With a no-moving-parts design, the flowmeter remains accurate in installations for 25 years or more, nearly eliminating the need to shut down production for calibrations, inspections, or regular replacement of the primary element, saving through production up-time, parts, and labor. www.mccrometer.com
