Abstract: A novel method for breaking the viscosity of an aqueous phase thickened with preferably hydrophilic polymers in the exploration and production of mineral oil and/or natural gas is proposed. For this purpose, the breaking is carried out via the formation of a low-viscosity emulsion, with water as the continuous phase, this emulsion being formed by the addition of at least one surface-active component to a system which consists of the thickened drilling fluid and an oil phase which is crude oil present in the reservoir and/or oil introduced into the reservoir. Solubilizers between oil phase and water phase and in particular non-ionic surfactants, cationic surfactants and/or amphoteric surfactants are used as a preferred surface-active component. In addition to the surface-active component, it is possible to use further components, which are demulsifiers, non-emulsifiers, co-surfactants or surface tension modifiers.

Abstract: A procedure for operation of a high frequency amplifier having a power transistor—amplifier stage designed as a source or emitter circuit for amplifying a gate or base side high frequency signal supplied over an input interface network E which signal is amplified at the drain or collector side and output via an output interface network. A device for the measurement of the drain or collector current I_D is connected at the amplifier stage on the drain or collector side and a final control element is connected on the gate or base side. A pre-adjustable desired value W_SOLL and an actual value W_IST corresponding to the drain or collector current are input to the final control element, which adjusts the gate voltage or the base current so that the drain or collector current I_D is brought to the desired value W_SOLL. At a constant input power P_IN of the high frequency amplifier, the envelope curve of the output signal RF_OUT is modulated by the desired value W_SOLL.

Abstract: This process for the preparation of homogeneous, low-viscous and long-term-stable polymer dispersion in mineral oils, in which a liquid mineral oil component, to which a water-soluble polymer and an organophilic bentonite have been added, is stirred, is distinguished by the fact that the dispersing process is carried out at speeds of ?1000 rpm. The duration of the stirring operation should preferably be between 5 and 60 minutes, and both aromatized and/or dearomatized mineral oils and also as typical water-soluble polymers, which moreover may have a maximum water content of 25% by weight, can be used. By means of this relatively simple process, homogeneous polymer-containing mineral oil dispersions having a low viscosity and at the same time pronounced long-term stability, which are suitable in particular for use in oil and gas exploration, are obtained in very short mixing times.
