Packer flowmeter

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-002675

A downhole tool that isolates a section of the wellbore using inflatable packers and then measures the flow rate of fluids within that isolated zone. By directing all flow through a calibrated measurement device, it provides accurate flow rates for specific intervals. This tool is used to identify producing or injecting zones and quantify their contributions.
