The document describes the Drilling Fluid Analyzer DFA-570 system, which continuously monitors various parameters of drilling muds in flow, including density, salinity, oil-water cut, temperature, volume and mass flow rates, and volume and mass totals. It contains two main meters - a Water Phase Salinity Analyzer WPSA-50 and a Coriolis Mass Flow meter DC-55. The system allows testing of drilling mud samples and recording of measured data over time for review and analysis. Four mud samples were tested with the system and their properties such as density, temperature, water and additive content were measured and recorded in a table.

9. For
this
task
Density
meter
should
fulfill
the
following
criteria
–
work
in-­‐flow,
capability
to
measure
Density
of
complicated
non-­‐Newtonian
liquids,
resistance
to
ac'vity
of
abrasive
solid
par'cles
(sand,
clay,
etc.),
resistance
to
clogging
up.
In
the
given
system
we
are
using
Coriolis
Mass
Flow
Meter
DC-­‐55
to
measure
Density,
Mass
and
Volume
of
the
mixture.
All
meters
are
joined
into
one
system
with
united
soRware.
All
measured
and
calculated
values
are
shown
in
program
“VDC+”
on
the
PC.
Moreover,
program
“VDC+”
allows
to
record
all
data
that
is
linked
to
'me
for
further
review
and
analysis.
SoRware
also
allows
the
user
to
create
own
set
of
data
to
receive
maximum
accuracy.

11. With
the
help
of
Drilling
Fluid
Analyzer
DFA-­‐570
4
different
samples
of
drilling

have
been
tested.

will
be

to
a

control
of

If
necessary
the
system
can
have
