Abstract
This article is devoted to the research and implementation of methods for ensuring water insulation works (WIW) in the oil sector using hydrophobic emulsions. In the context of modern requirements for environmental safety and efficiency of production processes in the oil industry, where water can become a source of problems, the introduction of innovative materials and technologies plays an important role. Conducting laboratory studies of hydrophobic emulsions for WIW in the oil sector is a multiprocess approach, starting from the initial assessment of the chemical component and ending with thorough testing for compliance with the requirements of specific operating conditions. The analysis evaluates the physico-chemical properties of the emulsion, such as density, viscosity, pH level, degree of dispersion, as well as its adhesive and cohesive characteristics. Special attention is paid to the study of the surface properties of hydrophobic emulsions, since their ability to form stable water-repellent coatings directly affects the effectiveness of protection against water exposure. To do this, tests are carried out on wettability, contact angle, adhesion to various types of surfaces, which allows us to determine the optimal conditions for the use of emulsions in specific situations. The article describes the principles of action of hydrophobic emulsions in the context of waterproofing works, emphasizing their ability to create a protective barrier, preventing moisture penetration into oil facilities. The paper presents the results of laboratory studies demonstrating the effectiveness of the use of hydrophobic emulsions in various operating conditions. The article discusses the technical aspects of the use of hydrophobic emulsions in the WIW process, analyzes their resistance to various environmental factors, and also considers the prospects for the development of this technology in the oil industry. The results obtained can be useful for specialists dealing with water insulation in oil companies, as well as for the scientific and engineering community interested in the development of innovative technologies in the oil sector. The purpose of this article is to analyze laboratory research and provide recommendations on the use of polymer composition.
