Title
Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards Chapter 10 - Sediment and Water Section 4 - Determination of Water and/or Sediment in Crude Oil by the Centrifuge Method (Field Procedure)
American Petroleum Institute
Publication Date:
Dec 1, 1999
Scope:
10.4.1 Scope and Field of Application
10.4.1.1 This section describes the field centrifuge method
for determining both water and sediment or sediment only in crude
oil. This method may not always produce the most accurate results, but
it is considered the most practical method for field determination
of water and/or sediment. When a higher degree of accuracy is
required, the laboratory procedure described in Chapter 10.2,
"Determination of Water in Crude Oil by Distillation" (ASTM D 4006),
or Chapter 10.9, "Standard Test Method for Water in Crude Oils by
Coulometric Karl Fischer" (ASTM D 4928), and the procedure described
in Chapter 10.1, "Determination of Sediment in Crude Oils and Fuel
Oils by the Extraction Method" (ASTM D 473) or Chapter 10.8, "Standard
Test Method for Sediment in Crude Oil by Membrane Filtration" (ASTM
D 4807) should be used.
Note: Water by Distillation, and Sediment by Extraction,
are considered the referee methods for determining water and sediment
in crude oils.
10.4.1.2 The requirements of this standard may involve
hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not
purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use.
The user of this standard has the responsibility for
establishing appropriate safety and health practices and determining
the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
