Abstract:
A technique facilitates evaluation of a fluid, such as a fluid produced from a well. The technique utilizes a modular and mobile system for testing flows of fluid which may comprise mixtures of constituents. A modular flow meter system comprises a plurality of modules which each have a multiphase flow meter coupled into a flow circuit. The flow circuits of the plurality of modules are selectively connectable to each other via flow connectors. Additionally, portions of the flow circuits may be selectively opened and closed to enable controlled routing of the fluid being tested through the desired multiphase flow meter or meters.

Claim (Index 16):
A method, comprising:\n preparing a first module and a second module such that each module includes a portable skid, a flow circuit mounted on the portable skid, the flow circuit including a flow meter, and a plurality of isolation valves on the portable skid; configuring the plurality of isolation valves to:\n direct a flow of fluid through a first flow meter of the first module to measure the fluid; and \n prevent the flow through a second flow meter of the second module, the first flow meter having a first throat size different from a second throat size of the second flow meter; \n determining, with a control system, to divert the flow from the first flow meter to the second flow meter based on a pressure of the flow; and adjusting at least one of the flow circuits based on the determination.
