A water cut meter measures the water content (cut) of crude oil and hydrocarbons as they flow through a pipeline. While the title "Water cut" has been traditionally used, the current API naming is Water Cut Analyser or WCA as OWD or On-Line Water Determination is trademarked.
Oil content meters measure how effective the oily water separators on a ship are functioning. [6] If the OCM computes that the oily discharge is above the 15 ppm standard, the oily water separator needs to be checked by the crew. There are three types of oil that the oil content meter needs to check for and they are fuel oil, diesel, and ...
RSPP – a publicly-traded oil and gas producer focused on horizontal drilling of multiple stacked pay zones in the oil-rich Permian basin [citation needed] [clarification needed] RSS – rig site survey; RSS – rotary steerable systems; RST – reservoir saturation tool (Schlumberger) log; RTMS – riser tension monitoring system
The meter must thus know the Pressure / Volume / Temperature properties of the oil, to add to the measured gas rate at line pressure the additional gas that would be liberated from the oil at atmospheric pressure, and also know the loss in oil volume from the release of that gas in conversion to standard conditions.
Oil discharge monitoring equipment (ODME) is based on a measurement of oil content in the ballast and slop water, to measure conformance with regulations. [1] The apparatus is equipped with a GPS, data recording functionality, an oil content meter and a flow meter. [ 2 ]
A wide range of analysis instruments are used in the oil, gas and petrochemical industries. [1] [16] Chromatography – to measure the quality of product or reactants; Density (oil) – for custody metering of liquids; Dewpoint (water dewpoint and hydrocarbon dewpoint) to check the efficiency of dehydration or dewpoint control plant

With a water-drive reservoir, the decline in reservoir pressure is very slight; in some cases, the reservoir pressure may remain unchanged. The gas/oil ratio also remains stable. The oil rate will remain fairly stable until the water reaches the well. In time, the water cut will increase, and the well will be watered out. [27]
