Abstract
Disclosed are a method and a device for measuring a sand content in a miscible phase fluid, the method comprising: flowing of the miscible phase fluid out of an oil and gas well through a pipeline, the miscible phase fluid of the wellhead of the oil and gas well including at least two fluid media; carrying out a measurement with a light quantum of four levels on the miscible phase fluid by a phase separator installed on the pipeline, such that a linear mass of each fluid medium is obtained; calculating a sand content in mass fraction based on the linear mass of all the fluid media, when the fluid media in the miscible phase fluid includes a solid phase sand.
