METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MEASURING WATER IN CRUDE OIL ABSTRACT A method and apparatus for measuring the amount of fluids in a two-fluid mixture flowing in a conduit wherein the fluids have different electrical conductivities. The apparatus includes a predetermined grid pattern of a first plurality of horizontal and a second plurality of vertical wires all under tension wherein the vertical wires are spaced a predetermined distance from the horizontal wires. When the lower conductivity fluid, such as water, occupies the predetermined space at the intersection of a vertical and horizontal wire, an electrical signal is generated. The electrical signals generated from each predetermined spacing having the lower conductivity fluid there between are counted and the percentage concentration of the lower conductivity fluid in the higher conductivity fluid is determined for each time interval.
