Impeller Flowmeter Tool


This tool is used to determine vertical fluid velocity within a borehole and identify areas of inflow or outflow. The tool is normally run at a constant logging speed both up and down the borehole.

The data is corrected for logging speed and a fluid velocity (FV) log is produced.

Flow (Q) in l/s may then be derived from the fluid velocity (FV) and caliper (borehole diameter) data.
