The influence of surfactant concentration and surfactant type on the interfacial tension of heavy crude oil/brine/surfactant system
The interfacial tension that exists amid crude oil and brine can be lowered by chemical surfactant flooding as a result of the mobilization of trapped oil. The influence of surfactants on the interfacial tension (IFT) that exists in a heavy crude oil/ brine system was examined experimentally. The influence of surfactant concentration was observed. The laboratory experiments were performed at...
