Gas density is frequently estimated indirectly by gas pressure sensors. Because the pressure in a tightly sealed compartment fluctuates greatly with temperature, such systems require temperature ...

The petroleum industry uses solids-free brines for completion and work over fluids. Operators must use brine densities sufficient to produce the required overbalance for well control, usually 200 psi ...

The capacity of a compressor can be affected by a refrigeration system’s ever-changing pressures. In addition, suction pressure entering the compressor will change the density of the suction gasses ...

Accurate prediction of bottomhole circulating temperature is important during drilling and completion of oil and gas wells and critical for properly designed cement slurries. Downhole temperature is ...
