The Salt in Crude Oil Test (ASTM D3230 / IP 265) determines the approximate chloride concentration in crude oil using the electrometric method. This test covers concentrations ranging from 3.5 mg/kg to 500 mg/kg (1.0 to 150 PTB) and evaluates conductivity caused by chlorides such as sodium, calcium, and magnesium. Accurate measurement of salt content in crude oil is essential for refineries, quality control, and petroleum laboratories to prevent equipment corrosion and ensure processing efficiency.
