Abstract: Compositions comprising non-halogenated solvents for use in various aspects of a life cycle of an oil and/or gas well, and related methods, are provided. In some embodiments, the composition comprises a solvent blend and one or more surfactants. In some embodiments, the solvent blend comprises a first type of solvent (e.g., a terpene) and a second type of solvent (e.g., a non-halogenated solvent). The composition may comprise about 90 wt % to 99.9 wt % of the solvent blend, and about 0.1 wt % to 10 wt % of one or more surfactants, versus the total weight of the composition. In some embodiments, compositions can be used in methods for treating an oil and/or gas well, having a wellbore that comprises one or more fluids. A composition may be delivered into the wellbore, passing through the one or more fluids to reduce residues comprising asphaltenes, paraffins or combinations thereof on or near the wellbore.

Abstract: Methods, compositions, and systems comprising microemulsions for agricultural use are generally provided. In some embodiments, a microemulsion is provided comprising a solvent, at least one surfactant, and an aqueous phase comprising a water-soluble agriculturally active chemical. In some embodiments, a nanodroplet dispersion composition is provided comprising a microemulsion diluted in a second aqueous phase, wherein the second aqueous phase comprises a water-soluble agriculturally active chemical.

Abstract: Compositions comprising aromatic ester solvents for use in various aspects of a life cycle of an oil and/or gas well, and related methods, are provided. In some embodiments, the composition includes an emulsion or microemulsion wherein the emulsion or microemulsion comprises an aqueous phase, a surfactant, and a non-aqueous phase. In some embodiments, the non-aqueous phase comprises a solvent blend including a first type of solvent and a second type of solvent, e.g., having a respective weight ratio of about 3:2 to 1:4. In some embodiments, the first type of solvent is a terpene and/or the second type of solvent is an aromatic ester solvent. In some embodiments, compositions are used in methods for treating an oil and/or gas well having a wellbore. In some embodiments, the composition is delivered into the wellbore, reducing residues comprising kerogens, asphaltenes, paraffins, organic scale, or combinations thereof on or near the wellbore.
