Non-emulsifiers are specialized chemical additives designed to prevent the formation of stable oil-water emulsions during well stimulation and production operations, ensuring efficient phase separation and fluid flow. UNPChemicals' DEMET series utilizes advanced block copolymer technology to effectively disrupt interfacial films between oil and water, minimizing emulsion-related production challenges while maintaining compatibility with acid systems and other treatment chemicals. These additives are particularly valuable in matrix acidizing and flowback operations where emulsion control is critical to maintaining well productivity and surface processing efficiency.

Non-emulsifiers are critical flow assurance chemicals that prevent problematic oil-water emulsions during well interventions and production, ensuring smooth fluid separation and processing. These additives work by neutralizing natural emulsifiers in crude oil and disrupting interfacial films at oil-water boundaries. UNPChemicals' DEMET series features innovative block copolymer formulations that provide robust demulsification performance while resisting degradation in high-salinity or high-acid environments, making them ideal for post-stimulation flowback operations and production chemical packages where emulsion prevention is essential for maintaining well productivity and surface facility efficiency.
What are Non-emulsifiers?
Non-emulsifiers are surface-active agents specifically designed to prevent or break oil-water emulsions that can form during well treatments or production, helping maintain efficient phase separation and reducing processing challenges at surface facilities.
What are the main types of Non-emulsifiers?
Primary categories include polymeric non-emulsifiers (like UNPChemicals' DEMET block copolymers), alkylphenol resins, polyol esters, and ethoxylated/propoxylated compounds, each offering different mechanisms for emulsion prevention and breaking depending on crude oil characteristics and water chemistry.
Where are Non-emulsifiers commonly applied?
These chemicals are essential in acid stimulation flowback operations, production chemical packages, and well cleanup procedures where mixing of oil, water, and treatment fluids can create stable emulsions that impede production and complicate surface processing.
How do you select the right Non-emulsifier?
Selection depends on crude oil API gravity, water salinity, presence of natural surfactants (asphaltenes, resins), treatment fluid type (acid, brine), and temperature conditions, with optimal products demonstrating quick interfacial activity without forming undesirable precipitates or sludge.
Why choose block copolymer Non-emulsifiers like DEMET?
Block copolymer non-emulsifiers like DEMET offer superior performance across varying crude types and water chemistries due to their adaptable molecular structure that can simultaneously interact with both oil and water phases, providing more reliable emulsion prevention than conventional single-chain surfactants, especially in challenging high-TAN or high-salinity environments.
