The present invention relates to a
demulsifier for
oil production and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the technical field of demulsifiers for
oil production. A preparation method for a
demulsifier for
oil production comprises the following steps: slowly adding
silicon dioxide to a mixed acid, controlling the temperature and stirring, removing impurities, and
drying to obtain a pretreated product; stirring and mixing a
silane coupling agent and
ethyl acetate, adding
sorbitol and reacting at a constant temperature, cooling to
room temperature, centrifuging, placing in
anhydrous ethanol, adding the pretreated product and ultrasonically dispersing, heating and stirring, removing impurities,
vacuum drying, placing in deionized water and mixing, stirring at high speed, adding
acrylamide and
benzyl methacrylate and stirring and mixing, adding an initiator and heating and stirring, continuing to heat and stir, cooling, adjusting the pH value, and placing in a granulator for
granulation to obtain the
demulsifier. The demulsifier of the present invention performs well in treating oilfield produced fluid. It can quickly exert its
efficacy, and as the dosage increases, the
treatment effect is further improved, thereby making the aqueous phase clearer.
