Methods and additives for reducing fouling in water coolers in Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage systems (SAGD) are described in which an additive comprising a cationic starch, either alone or in combination with a water clarifier compound, is introduced into a SAGD system, wherein a lower amount of the additive is used to achieve the same or better results in reducing fouling in the water coolers as compared to an otherwise identical method absent the additive.

Cationic starch-based additives for reduction of fouling in water coolers in SAGD production systems

A single-phase microemulsion additive may be introduced to a stream containing mixtures of or emulsions of oil and water in an effective amount to separate oil from the water in the stream and/or separating water from the oil in the stream. The single-phase microemulsion additive is formed by combining at least one demulsifier, at least one water clarifier, at least one surfactant, and optionally at least one solvent.

Single-phase microemulsion additive for separation of oil and water

A system for monitoring phase separation is disclosed. The system includes a temperature control housing having an inlet and an outlet connection for a circulator; a bottle holder positioned inside the housing, the bottle holder having a body with a plurality of recesses for receiving test bottles, each recess having a back surface, a front opening, and a first light scanning component mounted on the back surface of the recess; a sleeve having a plurality of second light scanning components mounted thereon, the sleeve being disposed between the housing and the bottle holder, and each second light scanning component being aligned with one of the first light scanning components; and a lid latched onto the housing to hold the test bottles in place during testing.
