METHOD FOR PRODUCING SOLID SAMPLES TO STUDY ELECTRIC PROPERTIES OF WATER-OIL MIXTURES

摘要

This invention relates to the materials examination through determination of their physical properties, in particular, electric properties, and can be used in developing engineering solutions for multiphase metering of oil and gas flows by producing solid samples which simulate water-oil and oil-gas-water mixtures suitable for calibration of instrumentation applied for measuring electric properties of the said mixtures. The suggested method calls for the determination of the basic component in the analyzed multi-phase mixture in the given range of measurement; selection of a substance whose electrical properties are similar with those for the selected component and which is capable of turning into a gel state, with a follow-up placement of the selected substance in a vessel; addition of the second component, which simulates the second phase of the mixture, in the thickened substance.
