A Comprehensive Quantitative Evaluation Method of Emulsifying Properties

In order to meet the demand of a quantitative evaluation the emulsifying properties of crude oil for the chemical flooding, based on the comparative analysis of relevant methods and standards, through a large number of experimental studies, a quantitative test methods and emulsifying power of the emulsion stability were established, the concept of the emulsion integrated index was definition, a quantitative evaluation method and the evaluation of the overall performance of the crude oil emulsion grade were put forward in this paper. The method takes into account the emulsification speed and persistence of the emulsifier. The method has been included in China's petroleum industry standard, and gives a technological support for the application in the comprehensive evaluation of the displacing agent in the petroleum industry.
