The purpose of this work is to select an effective additive of the “eco-organic” reagent to the oil-water emulsion during the extraction process in order to reduce the viscosity. The objects of research are highly viscous oil of the Bashkir horizon of the Vishnevo-Polyanskoe field and an “eco-organic” reagent based on humic acids.
Materials and methods
The materials of the study are the highly viscous oil of the Bashkir horizon of the Vishnevo-Polyanskoe field and the “eco- organic” reagent based on humic acids.
Results
Based on the data obtained in the course of research, it is safe to say that this reagent reduces viscosity. The most effective was the effect of 3% of the reagent on dewatered oil (a decrease in viscosity of 32 mPa•s or 4.9%), but its use in industrial volumes is questionable, since the technology must be supplemented with technical and economic indicators.
Conclusions
To improve the performance of the reagent as a viscosity reduction, you must either change the method of the study, or choose an additional modification to add another reagent to the one already studied.
