Embedded software solution aids automation and digitalisation of multiphase flow measurement

08 February 2021

Emerson has introduced a new software solution to boost process automation and the application of its Roxar 2600 multiphase flow meter (MPFM) for the oil and gas industry.

The Rapid Adaptive Measurement software architecture is said to enable the Roxar 2600 MPFM to do parallel computations at 10 Hz and autonomously select the optimal configuration for a particular time period. This leads to more automation in operational processes, reducing the need for what previously were manual configuration changes.

As oil and gas operators adjust production methodologies to develop more complex reservoirs, the flow profile of wells is becoming more varied. Producers therefore need multiphase flow metering technology to be robust and reliable in very demanding conditions. 

The Roxar Rapid Adaptive Measurement software supports operators with meter performance, increased robustness and confidence while enabling cost-efficient operations. The modularity of Rapid Adaptive Measurement allows for individual calculation modules to be improved and tested independently, and new modules can easily be plugged into the framework.

This enables the embedded calculation software and, by extension, the Roxar 2600 MPFM performance to evolve with new modules as they become available, providing continuously updated support for the life of an oilfield.
