Abstract
A method includes conveying a wellbore fluid into a container of a wellsite system, the container having a float angle hydrometer housed therein and the float angle hydrometer including a buoyant structure, and a measuring component housed within or attached to the buoyant structure. The method further includes determining one or more fluid properties of the wellbore fluid with the float angle hydrometer based on an inclination of the buoyant structure within the wellbore fluid, the one or more fluid properties including at least one of density, specific gravity, or fluid level.
