Narrative:

Take off out of dallas. Around 6000-7000 ft on the climb out to 10000 ft, we had an engine oil annunciation and master warning. The oil pressure was fluctuating between 25-45 psi. We referred to our handbook and performed the engine oil pressure procedure. Once we retarded the right engine to idle, the pressure remained in its parameters, around 35-45 psi. We returned to dallas. Landed after talking with our dispatch, maintenance and flight control staff.
