Abstract: DRIVE oil extractant is a new type of surfactant mixture which mainly contains fluorine polyester complex. It is developed to solve difficult problems, such as descaling, viscosity reduction of crude oil, declining of production and oil recovery rate. A series of tests in laboratory was carried out to study its function and performance. Test results show that this oil extractant can effectively reduce the viscosity of heavy crude, thus the fluidity and rheological property of crude oil are improved, besides, it also can help crude to separate from grease stain and scale quickly. Experiments of film forming and corrosion tests show that the characteristic of film forming with this oil extractant could reduce the adhesive force of particle surface; furthermore, this extractant will not cause heavy corrosion of equipment steel parts. The results of field experiments indicate that DRIVE oil extractant shows excellent oil displacement efficiency.
