EFFECT OF THE MULTIFUNCTIONAL AGENTS ON CRUDE OIL VISCOSITY
Abstract
Residual oil saturation in heavy crude oil reservoirs has been reported to range from 80 to 95% of the OOIP, after primary and secondary oil recovery [1, 5]. The most practical approach to enhance the recovery of heavy oil is viscosity reduction through thermal EOR. This section of the chapter describes the effectiveness of the multifunctional agents in reducing the viscosity of heavy oil. An Anton-Paar Physica MCR-301 rheometer equipped with a 50 mm PP50 plate-plate configuration and a gap of 1 mm was used to determine the viscosity of the oil samples.
