Report about;
Basic sediment and water
(BS&W)

Supervised by:
Mr, Karwan Ibrahim
Introduction :

The basic sediment and water (BS&W) are using to measuring the
rate of water and sediment in crude oil.
Until the rate of basic sediment and water in the crude oil are low this
crude oil is very clean and light.
But the rate of BS&W in some of crude oil are very high
So by this process we can indicate the rate of BS&W after that cleaning
the crude oil by separation .
This process important for some things like
 When we want bought the crude oil we should chose that crude oil
are containing less water and sediment , and the rate are very low.

 When we translate the crude oil this process can help us to translate
easily by indicating sediments , if the rate sediment are very high
may be remain in the bore so that is big problem .
 The rate of water is important because water making the corrosive
in the inside surface bore .

Discussion and conclusion

For measuring the BS&W in the laboratory , first thing use


50 ml of crude oil and 50 ml of xylene so mixing together .
after that put in the centrifuge for separate water and sediment from
crude oil and indicate the point that contain water and sediment.

the temperature doesn't the effect on the test.


The water and sediment effect on pipeline when through the sediment
remain in the pipeline but the water corrosive in side the pipeline .

SEDIMENT AND WATER % =

(VOLUME OF SEDIMENT & WATER / VOLUME OF OIL )*100%

SEDIMENT AND WATER % = ( 2.4 /50) *100%


SEDIMENT AND WATER % = 4.8 %
