Abstract:
A tubular scoop that may be utilized with various assemblies for sampling fluid in a pipeline. The scoop includes a bend with a bend radius that may be from two to four times the diameter of the scoop. The scoop defines a scoop face that is generally parallel to an axis of the tubular of the scoop. The scoop is mountable with a threaded connection that seals around the tubular. An additional seal may comprise a compression nut that allows orientation of the scoop within the pipeline whereupon the scoop orientation is fixed by tightening the compression nut. In one embodiment, the scoop is a single outer tubular with internal bi-directional flow.
