Abstract
Injection well fluid flow is measured by a device which has a running head and a body with a turbine type flowmeter interposed therein between the running head and discharge port means in the body. The running head may be interchangeable for positioning the body in selected positions in a tubing string in sealing engagement with a seating surface in the tubing string whereby fluid flow entering selected zones in communication with the injection well may be directly measured. The flow measuring device may include a signal storage or memory circuit disposed thereon for receiving and storing signals from the flowmeter.
