This disclosure is generally drawn to systems, devices, apparatus, and/or methods related to choke systems for drilling environments. Specifically, the disclosed systems, devices, apparatus, and/or methods relate to choke calibration, position, and time display systems for drilling environments. In some examples, a choke display for providing choke status, position, time, and/or calibration information is provided, in some examples, an apparatus may include a circuit board having a right side and a left side, a first set of sensors disposed adjacent the right side of the circuit board, a second set of sensors disposed adjacent the left side of the circuit board, and a display portion configured to display a first mode and/or a second mode based on an actuation of the first set of sensors and an actuation of the second set of sensors.

Choke calibration, position, and/or time display

An apparatus and a process for wellbore characterization are disclosed, including: separating, in a separation vessel, drilling mud from gas produced during drilling of a wellbore; transporting the separated produced gas from the separation vessel to a downstream process; and measuring at least one of a temperature, a pressure, a mass flow rate, and a volumetric flow rate of the separated produced gas during transport using one or more sensors. Properties of the gas separated from the mud may be used to determine characteristics of a wellbore.

Apparatus and process for wellbore characterization

A method for automatically measuring a property of a fluid associated with a drilling application, including obtaining a sample of the fluid, wherein the sample of the fluid is obtained by directing the fluid through an electrode probe assembly comprising an electrode probe and depositing the fluid in a probe gap between electrodes of the electrode probe, ramping up a voltage applied to the electrodes of the electrode probe until a threshold current is obtained, recording the breakdown voltage at the threshold current value, and using the breakdown voltage to compute the property of the sample of the fluid.
