Abstract: The quantity of sediment and water in crude oil mus t be accurately established as part of the custody transfer process. Purchasers only pay for the crude oil rec eived, and want to minimize the quantity of sedimen t and water they must transport and dispose of. Consequently, m onitoring of the sediment and water content is perf ormed at the production site to prevent excessive sediment a nd water from entering the pipeline system. The quantity of sediment and water a pipeline is willing to accept into their system depends on geographic location, m arket competitiveness and their ability to handle the sed iment and water in the system. Each pipeline publi shes the quantity of sediment and water it will accept. Stat es also may have sediment and water limits as well.
