Abstract
A process allows working with viscous petroleum referred to as 'heavy and extra heavy crudes' such as 20 to 6° API by adding an appropriate biosurfactant to an aqueous phase containing a biosurfactant active compound. The surfactant can be alkyl glycosides, glycerol esters and alkyl betaines. The result is the formation of a stable crude/water emulsion even with salt present therein.
