Abstract
Fluid sampling apparatus and related methods are disclosed herein. An example apparatus includes processor to implement a rules manager to access fluid data generated by a sensor disposed in a wellbore for fluid flowing in the wellbore. The processor is to analyze the fluid data relative to a rule and determine if the fluid data satisfies the rule. The processor of the example apparatus is to implement a communicator to generate an instruction for a sampling device disposed in the wellbore to collect the fluid if the fluid data satisfies the rule and transmit the instruction to the sampling device. The sampling device is to collect the fluid based on the instruction.

11. The apparatus of claim 7, further including a carrier, each of the sampling device and the sensor disposed in the carrier.
12. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the controller is to activate a trigger of the sampling device to cause the sampling device to collect the fluid.
13. The apparatus of claim 7, wherein the sensor is to generate the fluid data prior to the fluid flowing into the sampling device.
14. A method comprising: accessing, by executing an instruction with a processor, fluid condition data for a fluid in a wellbore and sampling device status data for a sampling device disposed in the wellbore; performing, by executing an instruction with the processor, a comparison of the fluid condition data to a predefined threshold; and generating, by executing an instruction with the processor, an instruction for the sampling device to collect the fluid or to refrain from collecting the fluid based on the comparison and the sampling device status data.
15. The method of claim 14, wherein generating the instruction includes selectively controlling a trigger of the sampling device to one of open an inlet of the sampling device or to close the inlet of the sampling device.
16. The method of claim 14, wherein the fluid condition data is first fluid condition data and wherein the sampling device is to collect the fluid based on the instruction and further including: accessing second fluid condition data for the fluid disposed in the sampling device; performing a comparison of the second fluid condition data to the threshold; and generating an instruction for the sampling device to release the fluid based on the comparison.
17. The method of claim 14, wherein the fluid condition data includes a saturation pressure and the predefined threshold is a saturation pressure threshold.
18. The method of claim 14, wherein the sampling device status data includes a status of a valve disposed in an inlet of the sampling device.
19. The method of claim 14, further including: detecting a user input including an adjustment to a condition in the wellbore; and identifying a change in the fluid condition data after execution of the adjustment in the wellbore.
20. The method of claim 19, wherein the adjustment includes an adjustment to a flow rate of the fluid.
