Abstract
A method can include receiving, by a demulsifier analysis framework, tensiometer data for an oil and water field sample that includes an added candidate demulsifier, where the tensiometer data include rheology data with respect to frequency and where the demulsifier analysis framework includes a model derived at least in part on bottle test data for demulsifiers in oil and water emulsions; determining a performance characteristic for the candidate demulsifier with respect to the oil and water field sample using the tensiometer data as input to the model of the demulsifier analysis framework without performing a bottle test on the oil and water field sample; and outputting, by the demulsifier analysis framework, the performance characteristic for the candidate demulsifier with respect to breaking an emulsion of the oil and water field sample.
