Certain wellbore fluid stimulation treatments may be monitored by a system including instrumented manifolds which may be connected between a base fluid source and a blending unit and between the blending unit and fluid injection pumps, respectively for measuring flow rates of the base fluid, the fluid additives and the fluid composition formed by the base fluid and the fluid additives. Instruments are also provided for measuring fluid temperature, pH, viscosity and flow behavior indexes (n', K') and fluid density. Quality control and determination of pressure losses in the wellbore together with modeling of stimulation treatments may be carried out by the continuous monitoring of parameters with the base fluid manifold and the mixed composition manifold.
