Process mass spectrometer for drilling fluid surface logging applications
Mike Edwards
Products Modbus
The WellPro process mass spectrometer from Ametek Energy & Process Instrumentation provides near real-time quantitative analysis of C1 through C7 components of mud gas in less than 10 s. Along with C1 through C7 components, additional analysis components are available.
The 19-in. wide rack mount chassis is designed for deployment under harsh conditions.
The speed and accuracy of the unit are said to make it suitable for drilling fluid applications in which surface logging data is vital for determining the pay composition along with quality and location.
Modbus and Open Platform Communications (OPC) are standard with the instrument, along with the Wellsite Information Transfer Specification (WITS) communications protocol.
