Product Description:
With the ongoing increase in global energy demands, the efficient extraction and management of oilfield resources are more crucial than ever. Non-ionic polyacrylamide (NPAM), a versatile water-soluble polymer, is now recognized as a pivotal element in improving oil recovery and streamlining operational efficiency within the petroleum sector.
Lanyao Water Treatment Co., Ltd., a dedicated producer of water treatment chemicals, underscores the escalating importance of NPAM in overcoming various obstacles encountered throughout oilfield operations.
Features:
Salt Tolerance and Stability
NPAM exhibits exceptional resistance to high-salinity environments, a common feature in oilfield brines. Unlike ionic polymers, its non-ionic structure prevents precipitation or viscosity loss in saline conditions, ensuring consistent performance in water injection and drilling fluids.
Thermal Resistance
With the ability to withstand temperatures exceeding 80°C (176°F), NPAM remains stable in high-temperature reservoirs. This thermal resilience allows it to maintain viscosity and functionality during enhanced oil recovery (EOR) processes, even in deep or harsh formations.
Shear-Thinning Behavior
NPAM solutions display shear-thinning properties, meaning their viscosity decreases under high shear stress (e.g., during pumping) but recovers once the stress is removed. This feature reduces energy consumption during fluid injection while ensuring effective oil displacement in reservoirs.
Strong Adsorption and Flocculation
The long-chain molecular structure of NPAM enables efficient adsorption onto suspended particles and emulsified oil droplets in produced water. This promotes rapid flocculation and sedimentation, simplifying water purification and supporting sustainable water reuse practices.
Low Sensitivity to pH Variations
NPAM performs reliably across a broad pH range (3–10), making it suitable for diverse oilfield environments. Its non-ionic nature avoids interactions with charged ions in acidic or alkaline conditions, ensuring stable performance in varying wellbore chemistries.
Environmental Compatibility
As a non-toxic and biodegradable polymer, NPAM aligns with increasing regulatory and environmental demands. Its use minimizes ecological risks in sensitive oilfield regions while meeting stringent discharge standards for treated water.
Versatility in Multifunctional Roles
Beyond its core functions in EOR and water treatment, NPAM serves as:
- A friction reducer in drilling fluids, lowering operational resistance.
- A soil stabilizer for preventing erosion during pipeline construction.
- A clay inhibitor to protect reservoir permeability.

NPAM in Oilfields: Driving Efficiency and Sustainability
Non-ionic polyacrylamide is widely recognized for its unique molecular structure, which enables it to function effectively in high-salinity and high-temperature environments common in oilfields. Its primary applications include:
- Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR):
NPAM improves the viscosity of water injected into reservoirs during tertiary recovery processes. By thickening the injection fluid, it displaces trapped crude oil more effectively, increasing overall extraction rates.
- Drilling Fluid Additive:
As a friction reducer, NPAM minimizes resistance in drilling fluids, reducing energy consumption and equipment wear while stabilizing wellbores.
- Produced Water Treatment:
Oilfield-produced water often contains emulsified oil and suspended solids. NPAM acts as a flocculant, aggregating contaminants for easier removal, thereby supporting water reuse and regulatory compliance.
- Soil Stabilization:
In pipeline and well construction, NPAM-based solutions help prevent soil erosion, maintaining structural integrity in sensitive environments.
