    • Single point optical probes for measuring three-phase characteristics of fluid flow in a hydrocarbon well and methods of processing signals generated by the probe are disclosed. A probe having a single fiber optic is coupled to a light source and apparatus for detecting reflectance and fluorescence. Light is delivered to the tip of the probe where it either is internally reflected in the probe or exits the probe and illuminates the fluid (liquid) ambient the probe tip. If the fluid at the probe tip is oil, the light exits the probe, illuminates the oil, and causes the oil to fluoresce. If the fluid is water, no fluorescence occurs. If the fluid is gas, at least some light is internally reflected in the probe. A detection system including at least one beam splitter and fluorescence and reflectance detectors is provided in conjunction with the probe. Preferably, the fluorescence detector is coupled to the fiber optic by a wavelength division multiplexer. A preferred signal processing system for detecting oil, gas, and water provides two quasi-binary indicators: gas/liquid and oil/not oil. Three of the four possible indications (gas-not oil, liquid-not oil, and liquid-oil) give reliable results indicating whether the fluid at the probe tip is gas, water, or oil. One of the four possible indications (gas-oil) can be considered an error indicator.
    • 公开了用于测量烃井中流体流动的三相特性的单点光学探针以及由探针产生的处理信号的方法。 具有单个光纤的探针被耦合到光源和用于检测反射率和荧光的装置。 光被传送到探头的尖端,其中它被内部反射在探头中或者离开探头并照亮探针尖端的流体(液体)环境。 如果探针尖端处的液体是油,则光离开探头,照亮油,并引起油发荧光。 如果液体是水,则不会发生荧光。 如果流体是气体,则至少有一些光在探头内部被反射。 与探头一起提供了包括至少一个分束器和荧光和反射检测器的检测系统。 优选地,荧光检测器通过波分复用器耦合到光纤。 用于检测油,气和水的优选信号处理系统提供两个准二进制指示器:气/液和油/非油。 四种可能的适应症(气体不是油,液体不是油和液体油)中的三种给出了可靠的结果,指示探针尖端的流体是气体,水还是油。 四种可能的迹象(瓦斯油)中的一种可以被认为是错误指示器。

    • Single point optical probes for measuring three-phase characteristics of fluid flow in a hydrocarbon well and methods of processing signals generated by the probe are disclosed. A single fiber optic probe is coupled to a light source and apparatus for detecting reflectance and fluorescence. Light is delivered to the tip of the probe where it exits the probe and illuminates the liquid ambient the probe tip or is internally reflected in the probe when gas is located at the probe tip. If the fluid at the probe tip is oil, the light exits the probe, illuminates the oil, and causes the oil to fluoresce. According to one signal processing method of the invention, the reflectance signal is binarized at a threshold to provide a gas/liquid quasi-binary signal which changes over time. A time fraction of the signal values is used to calculate the gas holdup. According to other signal processing methods of the invention, the fluorescence indication signal is processed by taking its derivative (and if desired a second derivative) to determine the "corners" of the fluorescence signal over time. The derivative signal exhibits a positive and a negative peak which are separated by time. The time between the peaks is used to calculate oil holdup and the amplitude of one of the peaks is used to calculate the velocity of the oil drop.
    • 公开了用于测量烃井中流体流动的三相特性的单点光学探针以及由探针产生的处理信号的方法。 单个光纤探针耦合到光源和用于检测反射率和荧光的装置。 当气体位于探针尖端时,光被传送到探头的尖端,在那里它离开探针并照亮探测尖端的液体环境或内部反射在探针中。 如果探针尖端处的液体是油,则光离开探头,照亮油,并引起油发荧光。 根据本发明的一种信号处理方法,反射信号以阈值二值化,以提供随时间变化的气/液准二值信号。 信号值的时间分数用于计算气体滞留量。 根据本发明的其他信号处理方法,通过取其衍生物(并且如果需要,二阶导数)来处理荧光指示信号,以确定荧光信号随时间的“角”。 导数信号表现出正时和负峰,它们被时间分离。 峰值之间的时间用于计算油滞留量,其中一个峰值的振幅用于计算油滴的速度。
