Definitions
- the invention relates to the preparation of improved emulsifier additives for use in oil based drilling fluids and to products so obtained.
- drilling fluid is circulated from tanks at the wellhead down the inside of the drill-pipe, through the bit and back up the annulus.
- the fluids are subjected to a number of treatments designed to remove gases or solid materials such as drilled cuttings, sand, colloidal material, etc. from the fluid before being returned to the well via the mud tanks.
- the properties of the drilling fluid change, due to a number of factors such as ingress of water or fine solids or temperature degradation of the components of the fluid.
- this treatment generally involves the addition of chemicals.
- Oil-based fluids are less prone to thermal degradation than water-based fluids and as a result are used to drill deep hot holes.
- economics dictate that as much of the field as possible should be exploited from each platform.
- This has led to an increase in the number of deviated wells and also to an increase in the maximum angle of deviation. The latter causes a marked increase in the torque required to maintain rotation of the drill-string.
- Oil-based drilling fluids exhibit extremely good lubricity compared with water based fluids and have proved particularly effective in the drilling of deviated wells.

Description
EMULSIFIERS FOR OIL BASED DRILLING FLUIDS
The invention relates to the preparation of improved emulsifier additives for use in oil based drilling fluids and to products so obtained.
In the drilling of wells by the rotary drilling technique, drilling fluid is circulated from tanks at the wellhead down the inside of the drill-pipe, through the bit and back up the annulus. On reaching the wellhead the fluids are subjected to a number of treatments designed to remove gases or solid materials such as drilled cuttings, sand, colloidal material, etc. from the fluid before being returned to the well via the mud tanks. During the course of this circulation the properties of the drilling fluid change, due to a number of factors such as ingress of water or fine solids or temperature degradation of the components of the fluid. As a result the fluid is treated to regenerate the required properties and this treatment generally involves the addition of chemicals.
As the total reserves of oil diminish, it has become necessary to drill in areas which were previously inaccessible due to technological or economic difficulties. This has led to the development of increasing sophisticated drilling fluids and in particular to the widespread use of oil-based fluids. These have a number of advantages over conventional water-based drilling fluids. Oil-based fluids are less prone to thermal degradation than water-based fluids and as a result are used to drill deep hot holes.
In order to drill effectively from offshore platforms, economics dictate that as much of the field as possible should be exploited from each platform. This has led to an increase in the number of deviated wells and also to an increase in the maximum angle of deviation. The latter causes a marked increase in the torque required to maintain rotation of the drill-string. Oil-based drilling fluids exhibit extremely good lubricity compared with water based fluids and have proved particularly effective in the drilling of deviated wells.
Drilling through hydratable shales has proved troublesome due to the swelling and sloughing of these formations on contact with aqueous drilling fluids. The problem is common throughout the world and not only leads to wellbores which are out of gauge but also to torgue and stuck-pipe problems. Oil-based drilling fluids do not affect most shales and are ideally suited to drilling through these formations.
In order to achieve a maximum production rate from a well it is important that the fluid, used to penetrate the production zone, and the subsequent completion fluid do not damage the formation.
Oil- based drilling fluids are designed to give a filtrate consisting only of oil and since this is essentially native to the production formation, it does not lead to a reduction in permeability. Aqueous fluids can cause loss of productivity due to pore contraction and blocking as a result of the hydration of clays.
Oil-based well-working fluids or muds can be classified as true oil muds and invert emulsion muds. The former contain only a small amount of water whilst the latter may contain up to 40 X or more water as the dispersed phase of an invert (water-in-oil) emulsion. Each of these fluids may contain a number of additives such as emulsifiers, viscosifiers, fluid loss reducing additives and various inorganic salts.
Emulsifiers are required to form a stable dispersion of water droplets in an oil phase (invert emulsion mud) and to maintain any
solids, for example weighting materials such as barytes or solids encountered during drilling in an oil-wet state.

The terms "dimer fatty acid" and "trimer fatty acid" as used in this Specification mean, respectively, a dibasic acid resulting from condensation of two molecules of an unsaturated fatty acid or ester (dimerization) and a tribasic acid resulting from condensation of three molecules of an unsaturated fatty acid or ester (trimerization). Such products have been known for many years and have been used commercially since the late 1940's. They are discussed in detail in the monograph entitled "The Dimer Acids - The chemical and physical properties, reactions and applications of polymerized fatty acids", edited by Edward C. Leonard, Humko Sheffield Chemical (1975) of which Chapter 1, "The General Charac teri za t i on o f Dimer Aci ds " , By Be rman and Loeb , i s i ncorporated herein by reference.
As discussed in the aforementioned monograph, dimer and trimer fatty acids are commercially prepared by thermal condensation of unsaturated fatty acids in the presence of a clay catalyst, e.g. montmorillonite clay, usually by a Diels-Alder type reaction. Preferred starting materials for the dimer and trimer acids are C12-22 alkenyl (preferably straight chain) monomeric fatty acids. A particularly favoured source of such acids is tall oil fatty acid comprising oleic and linoleic acid in admixture with lesser amounts of palmitic and stearic acids and other saturated and unsaturated acids. However, it is also possible to use individual unsaturated acids, such as oleic or linoleic acid.
Commercial processes for producing dimer acids usually result in mixtures which may contain varying amounts of monomeric by-products and starting materials as well as trimer and higher polymeric acids along with the dimer fatty acid. If desired the components of such mixtures may be separated, e.g. by distillation.
A number of compounds of component (i) are described in EP 49494, the contents and preferences of which are incorporated by reference and GB Published Patent Application No. 2,135,321 B the contents and preferences of which are incorporated by reference.
In this Specification for the avoidance of doubt, where any symbol appears more than once in a formula, its significances are independent of one another, unless indicated to the contrary.
Furthermore where any group is capable of being linear or branched, it is linear or branched unless indicated to the contrary.
The invention will now be illustrated by the following Examples in which all parts and percentages are by weight and all temperatures are in °C unless indicated to the contrary.
Example 1
103 g of diethylenetriamine is added to 570 g of a commercially available tall oil fatty acid under an atmosphere of nitrogen and the reaction temperature is maintained below 100 ºC.
The reaction mixture is then heated to 140°C and 36 g of water is removed by distillation. The reaction is cooled and yields 637 g of a 2:1 amide of crude oleic acid and diethylene triamine.
Under an atmosphere of nitrogen, 637 g of the 2:1 amide prepared above are heated to 80°C and 98 g of maleic anhydride are added at such a rate so as to keep the temperaυre below 100°C. When the addition is complete, the reaction is heated to 140°C for two hours. The reaction mixture is then cooled and discharged to yield 416.5 g of a compound of formula 1a
To the compound of formula 1a,95 g of dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid are added together with 250 mis of odourless Kerosene to form the emulsifier composition of Example 1.
Example 2
Under an atmosphere of nitrogen, 61 g of monoethanolamine are added to 300 g of a commercial tall oil fatty acid.
The reaction is then heated up to 160°C under reflux. Water is
allowed to distill out when the temperature falls below 150°C. When 18 g of water has been removed the reaction is cooled and discharged to yield 343 g of the monoethanolamide.
Under an atmosphere of nitrogen, 300 g of the alkanolamide prepared above, are heated to 80°C and 42.9 g of maleic anhydride are added at such a rate so as to keep the temperature below 100°C. The reaction mixture is then heated to 160°C under vacuum for six hours. The reaction is then cooled and discharged to yield 335 g of the compound of formula 2a
where R30 is oleyl derived from tall oil fatty acid.
To the compound of formula 2a, 80 g of oxidised tall oil and 200 mis of odourless Kerosene are added to form the emulsifier composi tion of Example 2.
Example 3
Similarly, an oleic diethanolamide is prepared by reacting 300 g tall oil fatty acid with 52.5 parts diethanolamine, to produce the 2:1 adduct of formula 3b
This is then further reacted with maleic anhydride, according to the method of Example 2, by heating 300 g of the amide above with 21.8 g maleic anhydride.
To the compound of formula 3a, 40 g of oxidised tall oil and 40 g of dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid in 250 mis of odourless Kerosene are added to form the emulsifier composition of the Example 3.

low toxic oil: 0.574 bbl water 0.205 bbl
Calcium Chloride 31.7 ppb
Organophillic Clay. 5.5 ppb
(Perchem DMB)
Barite (Barium Sulphate) 20.1 ppb
