In heavy oil, the content of light components is low, the content of asphaltene and colloid is high, and the content of straight chain hydrocarbon is low. As a result, most heavy oil has the characteristics of high viscosity and density, which makes it difficult to mine and transport.The main components of emulsifying agent are surfactants. By reducing the oil-water interfacial tension, the heavy oil in the formation changes from oil-in-water emulsifying state to water-in-external emulsifying state, which greatly reduces the viscosity of heavy oil and significantly increases the recovery rate.
