How to calculate the surface tension between water and pure oxygen gas

I tried to find the method online but could only find the surface tension between water and air at 20C is about 0.072 N/m.

Are there any method to calculate the surface tension between water- hydrogen, water-oxygen?

There is a general purpose equation for the interface under gravity that can be derived between two fluids which can be used when one is a gas.

This depends upon knowing the density difference and also the conditions of the interface.

I have highlighted the relevant section leading to equation 4 on the right hand page.
