The study of Water Cut Detection Methods for Crude Oil

Crude oil water content is one of the most important parameters in the petrochemical industry and high accuracy water content testing plays an important role in the development of oil fields and the improvement of crude oil recovery. At present, there are two main types of crude oil water content testing methods: manual testing and dynamic testing, and dynamic testing can be divided into two types: contact and non-contact measurement. Existing crude oil water content detection techniques, detection principles and advantages and disadvantages are introduced, and the latest developments in water content detection technology are mentioned, such as combining elements from other fields to improve the accuracy or online performance of water content detection. With the development of testing technology, real-time online, high accuracy, multi-element fusion and intelligence will be the new trend for future development.
