Abstract: The centrifuge method is widely used to determine the a mount of water and/or sediment in crude oil as part of the custody transfer process. The parties involved in a transaction would benefit to minimize the uncertainties involved. Pipeline companies publish the quantity of water and sediment it will contractually accept. Maintaining a balanced system is crucial to the business of a pipeline company. This paper discusses what could be the contributing factor s to uncertainties related to the centrifuge methods with the assumption that a homogenous sample was obtained from the process line. Proper mixing, temperature control, visual aids to enhance reading ability, training, equipment with consistent performance and capable to provide the required relative centrifugal force are some of the contributing factors.
