- There is a huge demand to visualise internal multiphase flow structure in the oil-gas industry. This EPSRC-funded work detailed a prototype non-radioactive and economic gas-oil-water flow measurement technology, based on data fusion from multiple techniques including vector electrical impedance tomography and other sensing technologies. Results indicate that this ‘green’ technology has significant potential for remote use in reservoir management and has led two international patents (WO2016/042316 A1, WO2016/042317 A1), follow-on grants (EURAMET EMRP-MSU, two Innovate KTPs, IAA) totalling £900k, eight journal publications (e.g., https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6501/ab06a9) and commercialisation in China (Daqing-Rongshi Oil Recovery Technology Ltd, email on request).
