Pipe system, a fluid sensing system for a pipe system, and a method of determining a fluid component in an annulus cavity of a pipe

Abstract

The invention relates to a pipe system comprising The pipe comprises a flow channel and an annular fluid cavity surrounding the flow channel. The fluid sensing station comprises a sensing fluid cavity which is in fluid communication with the annular fluid cavity, and the sensing fluid cavity comprises a light emitter and a light receiver placed at a distance from each other. The light emitter and the light receiver are optically connected to each other and optically connected to the remote light detector system. The invention also relates to a fluid sensing system for sensing a fluid in an annulus cavity of a pipe, said fluid sensing system comprises a fluid sensing station and a remote light detector system. The fluid sensing station comprises a sensing fluid cavity comprising a light emitter and a light receiver placed at a distance from each other and optically connected to each other. The remote light detector system comprises a light source and an analyzer. The light emitter is optically connected to the light source, and the light receiver being optically connected to the analyzer. The fluid sensing station is arranged to be connected to a pipe with an annular fluid cavity to provide a fluid communication between said annular fluid cavity and said sensing fluid cavity. The invention further relates to a method for sensing a fluid in an annulus cavity of a pipe.
