Some implementations of the present disclosure prevent, reduce or at least slow equipment fouling using passivation as a treatment prior to contacting metallic components with hydrocarbon containing fluid, that is, an environment where fouling occurs. For example, one implementation includes a method of passivating heat exchangers in a SAGD process or system using the compositions and compounds of the present disclosure. The composition may be applied to a component prior to its first inclusion in an online system or following placing the system offline for maintenance. The composition may be used to treat metallic equipment surface(s), for example, via contacting them with a suspension or solution of the composition described herein, prior placing the system online. The method may further include treatment of the process fluid, for example, via injection or batch treatment of the composition with the compositions described herein into the process fluid.

Chemical products for surface protection

A method of making a proppant-gel matrix comprising: a) hydrating a gelling agent to form a hydrated gelling agent; b) adding a basic compound to the hydrated gelling agent to form a basic hydrated gelling agent having a pH in the range of 11.5 to 14.0; c) mixing the basic hydrated gelling agent and a proppant to form a basic hydrated gelling system; and d) adding a crosslinking agent to the basic hydrated gelling system to form the proppant-gel matrix, is disclosed. The proppant-gel matrix can then be used as a fracturing fluid in a hydraulic fracturing process.

Crosslinked proppant-gel matrix

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for coating substrates with a composition. In one embodiment, a composition is provided including a first resin, a second resin different than the first resin, and a cross-linking agent.

Chemical products for adhesive applications

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for use with wellbore treatment processes. In one embodiment, a composition is provided comprising a cementitious material, a drilling fluid, or combinations thereof, and an additive composition comprising one or more components selected from the group of an aqueous insoluble lignin, a coke fine, a random tetracopolymer having the formula styrene-butadiene-acrylic-fumaric acid, a polyvinyl acetate, a surfactant composition, and combinations thereof.

Multiple functional wellbore fluid additive

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for coating substrates with a composition. In one embodiment, an adhesive composition is provided comprising a reaction product of a polyacid selected from the group consisting of an aromatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid with an aromatic group, and combinations thereof, or a diglycidyl ether; and a polyamine; and one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a branched aliphatic acid, a cyclic aliphatic acid with a cyclic aliphatic group, a linear aliphatic, and combinations thereof. The adhesive composition may be used to cover a substrate.

Compositions for dust suppression, methods for forming the compositions, and methods for using the compositions are provided. In one embodiment, the composition includes a non-sulfonated lignin and an alkylene glycol alkyl ether solvent. The compositions may be applied to an exposed surface of a substrate.

Process and composition for dust control

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for coating substrates with a composition. In one embodiment, an adhesive composition is provided comprising a reaction product of a polyacid selected from the group consisting of an aromatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid with an aromatic group, and combinations thereof, or a diglycidyl ether; and a polyamine; and one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a branched aliphatic acid, a cyclic aliphatic acid with a cyclic aliphatic group, a linear aliphatic, and combinations thereof.

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for fracturing fluid applications. In one embodiment, a fracturing fluid composition is provided comprising a fracturing fluid and an additive composition including a reaction product of a diglycidyl ether or a polyacid selected from the group consisting of an aromatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid, an aliphatic polyacid with an aromatic group, and combinations thereof; and a polyamine; and one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of a branched aliphatic acid, a cyclic aliphatic acid with a cyclic aliphatic group, a linear aliphatic, and combinations thereof.

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for use with wellbore treatment processes. In one embodiment, a composition is provided comprising a mineral acid and a retardation agent selected from the group of an amine containing compound, an amide containing compound, lignosulfonate, and combinations thereof.

Wellbore composition

The embodiments described herein generally relate to methods and chemical compositions for use with cementing processes. In one embodiment, a composition is provided comprising a random tetracopolymer having the formula styrene-butadiene-acrylic-fumaric acid, a polyvinyl acetate, and a nonionic surfactant.

Materials and methods of use as additives for oilwell cementing

A thermal phase separation simulator and method for testing chemicals is disclosed. The simulator comprises a circular block heater carousel mounted for rotation on a stage. The carousel includes a circular array of test wells for receiving a plurality of test bottles, a plurality of heating elements and thermocouples disposed between the wells. Each well has an illumination port and a vertical slit to the outside to allow visual observation or imaging of a vertical swatch of the bottle. An illumination source aligns with the illumination port of each well in response to rotation of the carousel. The method includes adding a mixed phase fluid to a plurality of bottles, adding a chemical agent to each bottle, and simulating a thermal phase separation. Images of the fluid in each bottle are captured and analyzed to determine the performance of the one or more chemical agents.
