Abstract

A system for positioning a sensor within a flow path of a wellbore annulus includes a work string extending into the wellbore annulus from a surface location. The system includes a movable arm on the work string, the arm transitioning between a first radial location and a second radial location. The system further includes a bracket coupled to the arm, the bracket being pivotable about a pivot axis, wherein the bracket supports the sensor and transitions the sensor from a stored position to a deployed position.
