The most important goal of any oil field is to free oil from formation water and purify from other mechanical impurities by breaking oil-water emulsion.
Today, no process of commercial oil preparation can do without the use of demulsifier and properly selected demulsifier provides a smooth process of oil emulsion resolution, saving time, resources and assuring oil export quality.
A demulsifier is a specialized reagent required for stable destruction of emulsions formed by water and oil. The role of demulsifier in oil desalting and dehydration is to penetrate the surface layer of emulsion particles and replace or displace the natural stabilizers present there. In this way, demulsifiers change the surface tension and the emulsion undergoes breakdown.
Demulsifiers solve specific challenges:
- emulsion breaking;
- desalting;
- formation water treatment;
- removal of mechanical impurities;
- increasing pipeline throughput capacity;
- treatment of oil at low temperatures, etc.;
Specialists of RauanNtech LLP have extensive experience in successful selection of demulsifier for specific tasks and technical conditions of the Customers production facility. The line of specialized demulsifiers of "Randem" brand have passed successful field trials at many oil and gas fields of the Republic of Kazakhstan and are now successfully used, providing a smooth process of oil treatment and achievement of the required quality indicators.
