Inline precise measurement of water fraction in oil (ie water-cut [WC]) finds numerous
applications in oil and gas industry. This paper presents the characterization of an extremely …

Modern reservoir management in oil and gas industry relies on accurate water fraction
measurement which is produced as a by-product with oil. This paper presents a novel and …

Efficient oil production and refining processes require the precise measurement of water
content in oil. This paper presents a novel planar microwave sensor for entirely non-intrusive …

Accurate water-cut measurement is critical for monitoring and increasing the efficiency of the
oil and water production rates and assessing crude oil quality. The accurate measurement …

Abstract Online monitoring of Water-Liquid Ratio (WLR) in multiphase flow is key in
petroleum production, processing and transportation. The usual practice in the field is to …

Water is mixed with the crude oil to form complex multiphase fluid during oil extraction
process. Some of the traditional methods to measure the relative amount of water mixed with …

In the present study, we propose a parallel-wire microwave resonant sensor (PMRS) with
transmission-through configuration for water holdup measurement in high water-cut oil-in …

A microwave sensor is designed to measure the resonance behavior of the hydrocarbon
mixture to determine the water holdup of a near horizontal oil carrying pipeline. This …

To realize high-resolution and stable water holdup measurement of oil–water flows with
varying water salinity, this article presents a noninvasive staggered double helix microwave …

In order to have on-line measurement of water content in heavy fuel oil (HFO), the so-called
water-cut meters are used. Typically, measurements performed by these devices are based …
