It is important to measure the oil content of crude oil from oil wells accurately for efficient oil exploitation and production. A novel method for the measurement of oil content of oil-water two-phase flow using Coriolis flow meter was presented in this paper. Key factors that influence the measurement of oil content were analyzed using density calibration method. Oil content measurement is significantly influenced by the accuracy of the density of the water phase as both the density of water and oil changed with temperature. A method that the density of oil and water corrected with temperature was presented in this paper. Experimental results show that the relative error of the measured oil content was less than 10% using this corrected method, which meet the industrial requirement.
