FIELD: oil and gas industry.
SUBSTANCE: this invention is related to production of oil-in-water emulsions with low viscosity during operations with oil. The method for reduction of apparent viscosity for hydrocarbon fluids occurring at oil extraction and transportation includes contact of the above hydrocarbon medium with effective quantity of composite containing at least one polymer with at least 25 mole percent of cationic monomers. The invention has been developed in dependent claims.
EFFECT: increase in oil production.
