A/C compressor swap

I'm about to purchase a new one at Napa w/clutch. In all the threads i've read it seems fairly straight-forward. I know I'll need to recharge the system, but do I need to remove refridgerant oil before the swap and add new oil to the new compressor? Does the new compressor arrive with no oil?

Read the instructions with the new compressor.
I am pretty sure I had to measure the amount of oil in the old and add the same in the new.
