Method For Processing Returns From Oil And Gas Wells That Have Been Treated With Introduced Fluids

US Patent:
6491824, Dec 10, 2002
Filed:
Dec 9, 1998
Appl. No.:
09/207786
Inventors:
Huei-Nan (Leo) Lin - Houston TX
Rodney Davis Martin - Lafayette LA
James M. Brown - Magnolia TX
Gene F. Brock - The Woodlands TX
Randall J. Perkins - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
BJ Services Company - Houston TX
International Classification:
C02F 900
US Classification:
210666, 210668, 210669, 210693, 210708, 210747
Abstract:
A method for resolving sludge/emulsion formed as a result of adding introduced fluids to oil and gas wells. The method comprises adding a water-dispersible emulsion breaker and/or adjunct additives that may include iron-control chemicals, scale-control chemicals, or paraffin-control chemicals or combinations thereof in amounts sufficient to separate the sludge/emulsion into an oil phase and a water phase and to control iron, scale, or paraffin in the oil phase. Further treatment of water phase includes treatment with water clarifiers, allowing the water phase to remain in settling vessels, and passing the water phase through a macroreticular resin resulting in water that is environmentally acceptable for disposal.

Resolution Of Sludge/Emulsion Formed By Acidizing Wells

US Patent:
6132619, Oct 17, 2000
Filed:
Dec 4, 1997
Appl. No.:
8/984939
Inventors:
Huei-Nan (Leo) Lin - Houston TX
Rodney Davis Martin - Lafayette LA
James M. Brown - Magnolia TX
Gene F. Brock - The Woodlands TX
Assignee:
BJ Services Company - Houston TX
International Classification:
C02F 900
US Classification:
210662
Abstract:
A method for resolving sludge/emulsion formed as a result of acidization of oil and gas wells comprising the steps of adding an iron-control chemical in an amount sufficient to prevent the formation of insoluble iron compounds, and adding a water-dispersible emulsion breaker in an amount sufficient to separate the sludge/emulsion into clean oil and water. Further treatment of the waste water with water clarifiers, settling vessels and passing it through a macroreticular resin results in water that is at least less than 29 mg/L total oil and grease for overboard discharges from offshore facilities.
