“…The resonance frequency of the sensor tubes will also be affected by the fluid flowing through the tubes. Thus, the density of the fluid can be determined by the change in the resonance frequency [41]. Most of the Coriolis flowmeters also have a temperature sensor to compensate for the changes in the tube stiffness with temperature [42].…”

Water cut is a vital monitoring and surveillance parameter with great significance in oil production operations and processing. Water-cut measurements are also challenging due to the significant variations and the harsh measurement environment. The objective of this article is to review the current water-cut measurement techniques and suggest future areas that are expanding to overcome existing measurement challenges. Commercially available online methods such as capacitance-based sensors, tomography techniques, gamma densitometry, ultrasonic meters and infrared meters, and the traditional laboratory offline methods, are discussed, along with their principle of operation, detection range, and sensing resolution. Also, the discussed techniques are summarized, highlighting their main advantages and limitations. Furthermore, future trends and research areas, such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), soft computing, Metamaterials, and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), which are integrated with water-cut measurements, are briefly mentioned. The current research hotspots are directed toward integrating full-range measurements with multi-parameter detection, high sensitivity, and reliability.

“…Al-Khamis et al [108] compared the performance of a U-tube meter, a modified U-tube meter and a twin straight-tube meter in a multiphase test unit designed to measure oil and gas rates, and water cut of oil wells. The performance of the U-tube meters deteriorated significantly when gas flowed with the crude, but the straight tube meter was less sensitive.…”

Accurate oil, water and gas flow rate measurements from individual wells are essential in order to properly manage both the wells and reservoirs, as well as to obtain reliable data for production performance monitoring, optimization, allocation and simulation models 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 . Over the past three decades, there has been great advancement in the multiphase metering technology. These advancements have resulted in a significant improvement in measurement accuracy as well as in reducing the physical size of these meters which is a crucial element in limited-space environments as in offshore platforms.
