A method of detecting an amine-based shale inhibitor in a wellbore servicing fluid (WSF) comprising contacting an aliquot of the WSF with an amine detector compound to form a detection solution; wherein the WSF comprises the amine-based shale inhibitor; and wherein the detection solution is characterized by at least one absorption peak wavelength in the range of from about 380 nm to about 760 nm; detecting an absorption intensity for the detection solution at a wavelength within about ±20% of the at least one absorption peak wavelength; comparing the absorption intensity of the detection solution at the wavelength within about ±20% of the at least one absorption peak wavelength with a target absorption intensity of the amine-based shale inhibitor to determine the amount of amine-based shale inhibitor in the WSF; and comparing the amount of amine-based shale inhibitor in the WSF with a target amount of the amine-based shale inhibitor.
