Prediction of Salinity of Salty Crude Oil Using Arrhenius-Type Asymptotic Exponential Function and Vandermonde Matrix

Production of wet crude because of a rise in the oil/water contact in many oil fields has been a growing field problem, and it has affected the quality of crudes. In almost all cases, salt is dissolved in the water that is dispersed in the crude oil and its separation is not simple because desalting...
