Systems and methods for real time monitoring and management of wellbore servicing fluids

A system, comprising:

• servicing fluid reclamation equipment fluidly coupled to a borehole and configured to receive wellbore servicing fluid therefrom, the servicing fluid reclamation equipment having an inlet and an outlet;
• a first optical computing device arranged adjacent the inlet and having a first integrated computational element configured to optically interact with the wellbore servicing fluid before it enters the servicing fluid reclamation equipment and thereby generate a first output signal corresponding to a characteristic of the wellbore servicing fluid;
• a second optical computing device arranged adjacent the outlet and having a second integrated computational element configured to optically interact with the wellbore servicing fluid after it exits the servicing fluid reclamation equipment and thereby generate a second output signal corresponding to the characteristic of the wellbore servicing fluid;
• and
• a signal processor communicably coupled to the first and second optical computing devices and configured to receive the first and second output signals and provide a resulting output signal.

A method of determining a characteristic of a wellbore servicing fluid, comprising:

• conveying a wellbore servicing fluid to servicing fluid reclamation equipment fluidly coupled to a borehole, the servicing fluid reclamation equipment having an inlet and an outlet;
• generating a first output signal corresponding to the characteristic of the wellbore servicing fluid with a first optical computing device arranged adjacent the inlet, the first optical computing device having a first integrated computational element configured to optically interact with the wellbore servicing fluid before it enters the servicing fluid reclamation equipment;
• generating a second output signal corresponding to the characteristic of the wellbore servicing fluid with a second optical computing device arranged adjacent the outlet, the second optical computing device having a second integrated computational element configured to optically interact with the wellbore servicing fluid after it exits the servicing fluid reclamation equipment;
• receiving the first and second output signals with a signal processor communicably coupled to the first and second optical computing devices;
• and
• generating a resulting output signal with the signal processor.
