It takes a looooong time to cook water out of oil. We tried that several times when we had a heat exchanger leak in our hydraulic test machines. We would take the top off the reservoir, turn the heaters on to heat the oil to 225 to 250 degrees and let it sit for hours, circulate the oil/water mix to expose more to the atmosphere and even after a couple of days, it would still have water in it.
