Discharges of oily water are common among a number of commercial operations. If
unregulated these effluents can lead to both short and long term adverse environmental …

Maintenance of oil pipelines is an issue of great concern for oil companies. Any possibility of
leakage must be detected before the leakage occurs and a preventive action should be …

This work aims to evaluate the influences of the water content dissolved in crude oil and of
the meter factor on the uncertainty of the fiscal oil measuring system using ultrasonic flow …

This paper presents an approach to prevent the incorrect transfer of fuel to the wrong tank
during refueling. An experimental setup was developed to perform ultrasonic and dielectric …

Transformers are one of the most important equipment found in electrical power systems.
Thus, their status must be constantly monitored to avoid critical failures. The analysis of the …

Controlled flow rate tests using mixtures of crude oil and water at different mass fractions
were carried out in a flow loop at the University of Tulsa. A noninvasive acoustic method …

In the oil industry, many applications require the measurement of more than one liquid level
interface, often in challenging, environments. In this paper, an ultrasonic technique has been …

This paper presents an empirical method for measuring the viscosity of mineral oil. In a built-
in pipeline application, conventional ultrasonic methods using shear reflectance or …

The development of a hybrid sensor consisting of a piezo acoustic resonator and a
semiconducting humidity sensor for measurements of the dielectric break down voltage …

In order to solve the problem of remote oil level measurement for unmanned transformers,
this paper proposes an online monitoring technology for transformer oil level based on …
