We study bright solitons in the Gross-Pitaevskii equation as they are split and recombined in a low-energy system. We present analytic results determining the general region in which a soliton may not be split on a potential barrier and confirm these results numerically. Furthermore, we analyze the energetic regimes where quantum fluctuations in the initial center-of-mass position and momentum become influential on the outcome of soliton splitting and recombination events. We then use the results of this analysis to determine a parameter regime where soliton interferometry is practicable.
