Oil is a very important resource, and is a non-renewable resource, scientists through decades of efforts have not found a replacement for its energy. But thus people in the oil industry know that in the oil extraction process from time to time there will be a large number of foam, which will lead to a significant decline in the efficiency of oil extraction, which often needs to use the oilfield industrial defoamer.
The two problems that lead to oilfield foaming
The first is that we generally use some additives in the oilfield extraction process, the active agent in these additives will lead to the emergence of foam, the second is that the operation of the machine in the extraction process will lead to a large amount of air into the oil will lead to the emergence of foam, and it is difficult to escape in the high-viscosity system, resulting in the mixing of gas-liquid two-phase, resulting in foam; thick oil has strong foaming properties. The third is that its foaming speed is higher than the speed of breaking the foam.
The second oilfield foam hazard
The emergence of a large amount of foam will lead to the emergence of a foam layer in the underground oil field, and these foams are not only large in volume but also have very high stability and viscosity. Metering errors; foam generation affects the progress of oilfield chemical extraction and processes, resulting in lower efficiency and higher costs
The role of oilfield industrial defoamer
Oilfield industrial defoamer is developed and produced according to the causes of foaming, which can avoid these hazards in the construction process and thus reduce losses, while the lower surface tension of oilfield industrial defoamer and its excellent dispersibility and strong defoaming ability allow it to quickly solve the foam layer in our oilfield and the size of the foam in the oilfield, and its stability allows it to be used in the process without affecting the indicators of the oil.
