To develop and validate a mathematical model capable of accurately predicting the viscosity of structurally stable oil emulsions as a function of water cut.
Assessed the limitations of existing empirical rheological correlations under practical oilfield conditions.
Formulated a mathematical model to calculate emulsion viscosity variations driven by increasing water content.
Validated model predictions against experimental rheological data.
Identified that conventional empirical correlations fail to reliably capture complex emulsion rheology under field conditions.
Achieved good agreement between the proposed mathematical model and experimental viscosity measurements across varying water cuts.
