Abstract
Systems and methods of separating multiphase flows in a flowline of a downhole fluid sampling and analysis tool, measuring target ions in the water phase, and separating between formation water and injection water are described. The system to separate the multiphase flows includes a three-dimensional barrier permeable to water and repelling oil and/or drilling mud filtrate into at least one bypass channel within the flowline of the downhole fluid sampling and analysis tool. For instance, the system to measure the targeted ions includes the system to separate the multiphase flows and an optical sensor, wherein the three-dimensional barrier has an aperture inside the three-dimensional barrier to let a light from an optical sensor go through perpendicular to the flowline.
