 Compact
Time-Proven Methods
Simple to Repair
One Vendor, Complete Solution
Flexible Performance
Unique, Patented Gas Elimination Scheme
Control and Measurement Electronics in One Package
Fast Well Testing, Typically 4 Hours per Well or Less
Turn Down Is Primarily Instrumentation Dependent
 Well testing can be done quickly and accurately due to the small liquid volume and time required to establish equilibrium. Since the control system is fully automatic, there is little or no operator involvement in changing control schemes.
The system is a modern version of a traditional 2-phase separator. Standard liquid flow metering, water cut and gas measurement are used throughout.
This Compact Cyclone Multiphase meter (CCM meter) has been developed by Kv?rner Process Systems ，and Statoil utilizing a compact gas liquid cyclone to separate liquid and gas. This patented technology provides for a simple control scheme and excellent removal of gas from the liquid.
Finite element analysis of well conditions and fluid parameters is performed to optimize the CCM meter's design. This provides assurance of the product's operational envelope at delivery.
An integrated control system has been designed by Phase Dynamics to simplify operation, and provide maximum reliability. Simple operator commands start, stop and display well test results.
The Compact Cyclone Multiphase meter can be configured in various schemes. The configuration depends on the required measuring precision to meet the customer's specifications and the operational envelope of the process. The turn down of the CCM meter is primarily determined by the instrumentation selected.
The separated liquid is routed through a Phase Dynamics full range microwave water cut meter, forming an integral part of the CCM meter. A customer-preferred choice of liquid flow meter is used so that both the oil and water flow rates can be derived.
The separated gas is measured using a conventional gas meter. Carry-over liquid is removed from the gas stream in the gas scrubbing and polishing stages.
