Abstract: he purpose of this paper is to analysis the various f low meter selections for upcoming Heavy Oil Development Project in KOC, Kuwait . In a heavy oil facility the flow measurement of the oil and emulsion will be very difficult with standard instrumentation. The heavy oil has a high viscosity. The emulsion will also have a high viscosity and may have entrained sand/silt that can cause plugging and erosion of flow elements. Produce d water will have enough oil in it to cause plugging and coating issues. Even the w et produced gas will contain enough oil particles to cause plugging and coating. In the water treatment process of a heavy oil facility there will be slurry and sludge flows that present a problem for flow metering with c onventional instruments
