Abstract

This paper is aimed at highlighting the problems of crude oil emulsion and identification of the most effective combination of treatment method through the comparative analysis of various brands of demulsifiers that give the best quality oil. The best quality oil is oil with the lowest Basis sediment and water (BS and W) and low API gravity values. In the process of analysis (bottle test), a combination of factors were used to determine the best treatment condition. They are: Residence time, chemical requirement, heat effect e.t.c. The result of the comparative analysis showed that V44O4 at a temperature of 60°C at a close rate of 50PPM was found most suitable.
