    Abstract: Non-emulsifying compositions may contain one or more sorbitan esters; one or more non-ionic surfactants; and one or more amphoteric surfactants, wherein the ratio of the one or more sorbitan esters to the one or more non-ionic surfactants to the one or more amphoteric surfactants is in the range of 1:1:1 to 1:5:3. Methods may include contacting an emulsion with a treatment fluid, the treatment fluid containing one or more sorbitan esters, one or more non-ionic surfactants, and one or more amphoteric surfactants, wherein the ratio of the one or more sorbitan esters to the one or more non-ionic surfactants to the one or more amphoteric surfactants is in the range of 1:1:1 to 1:5:3; and separating the emulsion into an aqueous phase and an oleaginous phase.

    Abstract: A wellbore fluid may include a non-oleaginous internal phase, an oleaginous external phase, and an emulsifier having a molecular weight of at least 700 daltons, whereby the emulsifier may include at least one tertiary amine. A method of completing a wellbore operation may include injecting a wellbore fluid downhole, the wellbore fluid including a non-oleaginous internal phase, an oleaginous external phase, and an emulsifier having a molecular weight of at least 700 daltons. The emulsifier may include at least one tertiary amine. The method may further include injecting a wash fluid comprising a protonating agent downhole.

    Abstract: Emulsion-preventing compositions may contain one or more sorbitan esters; and one or more non-ionic surfactants; where the ratio of the one or more sorbitan esters to the one or more non-ionic surfactants is in the range of 1:1 to 1:5. Methods may include contacting an emulsion with a treatment fluid, the treatment fluid containing one or more sorbitan esters and one or more non-ionic surfactants, where the ratio of the one or more sorbitan esters to the one or more non-ionic surfactants is in the range of 1:1 to 1:5; and separating the emulsion into an aqueous phase and an oleaginous phase.
