Abstract
Interfacial tensions of 10 normal alkane + water/brine and hydrocarbon mixture + water/brine systems were measured by using a pendent drop i nstrument. The temperature and pressure ranges of measurements are (25 to 80) degrees C and (1 to 300) bar, respectively. The effects of tem perature, pressure, and salt content have been studied. It was found t hat the interfacial tension is sensitive to temperature and salt conce ntration but weakly dependent on pressure and salt species.
