Abstract
A system and method for preventing scale in a well. The system includes a conduit providing fluid communication between a first location and a second location and a sensor at the second location configured to measure scale deposition in the fluid and a value of a fluid parameter. A scale deposition at the first location is determined from the scale deposition at the second location and the fluid parameter at the second location. A scale inhibitor is injected at the first location based on the determined scale deposition at the first location.
