Demulsifier Production

ob PurposeTo lead and contribute to the research, development, formulation, and testing of specialty chemicals—specifically demulsifiers and corrosion inhibitors—for applications in the oil & gas, petrochemical, or industrial water treatment industries. The role involves innovation, formulation optimization, product performance evaluation, and technical support to commercial and field teams.Key ResponsibilitiesResearch & DevelopmentDesign, synthesize, and formulate new demulsifier and corrosion inhibitor chemistries.Conduct laboratory-scale and pilot-scale testing to evaluate performance under simulated field conditions.Perform structure-property relationship studies to improve product efficiency and stability.Modify and optimize existing formulations for cost reduction, improved performance, and regulatory compliance.Analytical & Application TestingDevelop and implement testing protocols using techniques such as FTIR, GC-MS, HPLC, TGA, and corrosion testing equipment (e.g., autoclaves, rotating cage, linear polarization resistance).Test product compatibility with crude oil, brine, and other field fluids.Conduct phase separation studies, bottle testing, and interfacial tension measurements for demulsifiers.Perform static and dynamic corrosion tests (weight loss, electrochemical tests).Technical Documentation & ReportingMaintain accurate lab notebooks and write technical reports summarizing findings.Generate data for regulatory submissions, product datasheets, and technical marketing materials.Contribute to patent filings or publications where applicable.Collaboration & SupportWork closely with cross-functional teams including field service, marketing, production, and quality control.Support scale-up and commercialization of new products.Provide technical support and troubleshooting for field issues related to emulsions or corrosion.Qualifications & SkillsEducationBSc / MSc / PhD in Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, or Materials Science.Experience+10 years of experience in formulation and testing of oilfield or industrial specialty chemicals.Hands-on experience with demulsifier and/or corrosion inhibitor development is strongly preferred.
