Abstract: Statoil is developing the Mariner and Bressay fields which are heavy oil discoveries in the UK sector of the North Sea. The Mariner project includes one platform called the PDQ with process, drilling and living quarters and one ship called the FSU with oil storage, oil export and diluent import. A jack-up drill rig will be temporary connected to the PDQ. The oil production is dependent on continuous injection of a diluent - a light oil from other offshore fields - in each production well. The diluent will be imported in batches from shuttle tankers to the permanently installed floating storage units (FSU). Heavy crude oil shall be exported from the same storage unit. The diluent import and the heavy crude export shall be fiscally metered by a common batch metering station. The metering station must handle low viscosity diluent and various high viscosity diluted crude oil qualities. The resultant liquid flows will represent turbulent flow, transition flow and laminar flow through the ultrasonic flow meters
