ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are provided whereby a pressure vessel of known internal volume is filled with a hydrocarbon liquid at elevated pressure and a measured temperature. When filled, a valve to a connected buffer vessel is opened to prevent any risk of overpressure caused by a rise in temperature after filling. The whole assembly is weighed before and after filling. The difference in mass, divided by the known internal volume of the vessel and associated pipework, provides the density of the confined hydrocarbon liquid.
