Abstract
A technique facilitates monitoring of events related to various well operations. According to an embodiment, the technique provides a non-invasive approach to measuring fluid and solids transport through well surface pipe assemblies. The desired information may be detected and obtained by mounting sensors to the exterior of pipes, thus enabling retrofitting of the sensor system to existing assemblies at a desired time during a given operation. Additionally, the technique may utilize a combination of sensors and systems for measuring fluid and solids transport through well flow path assemblies. The measurements obtained may be used to provide real-time monitoring of surface flow conditions as well as of downhole wellbore conditions and of the status of downhole equipment.
