This slideshare presentation is a brief about different specialty oilfield chemicals and their applications in various industries. Demulsified is one of the important oilfield chemicals that are used to separate oil and water in the oilfield. It works by causing changes in density of the oil, causing easier separation of the two chemicals while at the same time reducing the corrosion of the pipelines which might lead to higher maintenance costs of equipment.
Corrosion inhibitors are the chemicals that help prevent the corrosion of pipelines that are used to transport the oil in the oilfield. Corrosion is mainly caused by oxygen in the oilfield, and since water contains oxygen, corrosion inhibitors are necessary to absorb the oxygen in the water oil emulsions.
Surfactants are used to lower the surface tension of a liquid and various types of surfactants are used in different industrial applications like Ethoxylates, Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate, Fatty Acid Ethoxylate, Fatty Amines Ethoxylate.

2. Specialty Oilfield Chemicals
Oil chemicals are used in drilling and exploration of gas and oil to improve
these operations by improving the efficiency and productivity of the oil
drilling process.
3. Demulsifier
Demulsifiers (divided into oil soluble and water soluble demulsifiers) are
used to separate oil and water in the oilfield.
Demulsifier is important to separate the oil from the water so as to purify
it, as well as to reduce the corrosion of the pipelines and containers ferrying
the oil.
Demulsifiers work by causing changes in density of the oil, causing easier
separation of the two chemicals while at the same time reducing the corrosion
of the pipelines which might lead to higher maintenance costs of equipment.
Corrosion of the pipelines in the oilfield will lead to losses and higher
maintenance costs.
Corrosion in the pipelines in an oilfield can be caused by attack of
oxygen, carbon dioxide or hydrogen sulphide. It can be reduced by corrosion
inhibitors.
4. Corrosion Inhibitors
Corrosion inhibitors are the
chemicals that help prevent the
corrosion of pipelines that are used
to transport the oil in the oilfield.
Corrosion is mainly caused by
oxygen in the oilfield, and since
water contains oxygen, corrosion
inhibitors are necessary to absorb
the oxygen in the water oil
emulsions.
5. Surfactants
Types of surfactants, below are some of the surfactants and their
Applications
Ethoxylates
Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate
Fatty Acid Ethoxylate
Fatty Amines Ethoxylate
6. Ethoxylates
These are produced from the
ethoxylation processes. In
the textile industries, the
ethoxylates are used for
scouring, lubricating,
finishing and dying of the
fabrics.
7. Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate
These range from clear yellowish
liquids to wax solids, depending
on their length of the alkyl chain.
Fatty alcohol ethoxylates are
used for scouring and
emulsifying in the textile industry.
They are also used in dye leveling
and as wetting agents. The major
function of fatty alcohol
ethoxylates is emulsification.
8. Fatty Acid Ethoxylate
They are used as non ionic
surfactants in a number of
processes in the textile industry.
Fatty acid ethoxylates are used as
emulsifiers, water softeners,
wetting agents and as spin dying
agents.
9. Fatty Amines Ethoxylate
They are good oil emulsifiers, and
dye dispersants. They are also
good as wetting agents. Fatty
amine ethoxylates are important in
the textile industry in for they act
as fiber lubricants and also as
dying agents.
