Measured values of fluid properties for oil, gas, and water at particular operating temperature and operating pressure in a pipe are used to develop fluid phase equilibrium model to calculate fluid properties at other operating temperatures and operating pressures in the pipe. The developed fluid phase equilibrium model is used to generate a fluid property look-up table that establishes correspondence between values of operating temperatures and operating pressures and values of fluid properties for oil, gas, and water. A flowmeter is configured to directly use the fluid property look-up table to measure flowrates of oil, gas, and water in the pipe.
