Abstract
The main objectives of this study are to determine the influence of crude oil type, salinity, temperature and pressure on the dynamic interfacial tension (DIFT) of crude oil based on the experiments and modeling approaches. DIFT is also modeled using dynamic adsorption models, mono-exponential decay model as well as empirical equations. The results showed that when temperature increases, unlike deionized water which inversion phase temperature was observed, the equilibrium IFT of crude oils/sea water increases due to reduction of surface excess concentration of natural surfactants at the fluid/fluid interface as a dominant mechanism

Abstract
This study investigates dynamic interfacial tension (DIFT) of acidic crude oil (ACO) and non acidic/basic crude oils (BCO) + deionized water (DW) as a function of pressure from 500 to 4000 psi, and temperature from 30 to 80 °C using an axisymmetric drop shape analysis (ADSA) technique. DIFTs are also modeled using dynamic adsorption model, mono-exponential decay model, and empirical equations. The results showed that if a reduction in the surface excess concentration due to increasing temperature overlooks the total entropy of the molecules in the system, an increase in IFT would be expected

Abstract
Concerns about climate change have persuaded the researchers to examine CO2 injection in the form of carbonated water (CW) into oil reservoir as a safe and effective CO2 storage and enhanced oil recovery process. Although interfacial tension (IFT) between crude oil and injected fluid has a vital role on the displacement of fluids in porous media, the effect of CO2 and crude oil type on the dynamic IFT of crude oil under different operational conditions is not well understood. Accordingly, this study was carried out to assess the effects of temperature, pressure, crude oil type and CO2 on the dynamic IFT of crude oil/CW. To achieve this goal, two types of crude oil were provided from southern...
