There is described a system for measuring fluid flow within a conduit. The system comprises a conduit for conveying a fluid, a mount attached to the conduit which may define a high-pressure zone in an interior of the conduit and a low-pressure zone in an exterior of the conduit, and a flow sensing device attached to the mount and configured to move relative to the mount in response to flow of the fluid within the conduit. The flow sensing device is attached to the mount via a coupling which may be located within the high-pressure zone. The system further includes a sensor configured to measure movement of the flow sensing device. The flow sensing device may comprise a paddle and a straight arm extending from the paddle to the coupling.

System and device for measuring fluid flow within a conduit

A method for analyzing a gas sample conveyed in a drilling fluid involves liberating the gas sample from the drilling fluid, irradiating the gas sample with infrared radiation spanning a wavelength range in the near-infrared range, detecting absorption spectra associated with irradiating the gas sample, and determining a composition of the gas sample from the absorption spectra. The gas sample includes one or more of methane, ethane, propane, and butane, the detected absorption spectra are associated with irradiating each of the one or more of methane, ethane, propane, and butane, and the composition includes a concentration of any one or more of the methane, ethane, propane, and butane.

A gas trap includes a sample enclosure, a bubbler enclosure, an agitator, and a brushless, DC motor. The sample enclosure has a liquid inlet, a gas sample outlet, and a sample enclosure wall with a sample enclosure wall portion and a shared wall portion. The bubbler enclosure has a bubbler air inlet, a bubbler air outlet, and a bubbler enclosure wall with a bubbler enclosure wall portion and the shared wall portion. The sample and bubbler enclosures are fluidly coupled through the shared wall portion so that sufficiently pressurized bubbler air entering through the bubbler air inlet maintains the drilling fluid in the sample enclosure at a level determined by the location of the bubbler air outlet when the liquid inlet and the bubbler air outlet are both submerged in the drilling fluid.
