Obtaining stable emulsions of different ways — polar immiscible liquids to displace oil from the reservoir

Abstract Experimentally investigated the possibility of selecting the optimal emulsifier-stabilizer of the eight contenders for his presence in a stable emulsion. The use of optimal emulsifier-stabilizer in combination with wave mixing technology yielded fine stable oil-water and water-in-oil, which is then used as the displacement agent on the tubular model oil reservoir Sosninskay’s and Mangyshlak’s oil. The use of emulsions in these conditions has additionally displace 13 to 19% of oil, depending on its composition.
