Study on emulsion stability and chemical demulsification characteristics
Water in oil emulsion occurs at many stages in the production and treatment of crude oil. About two third of petroleum production of every oil field exists in the form of water in oil emulsion. The emulsion stability results from the presence of interfacial barrier preventing coalescence of the disp...
