Abstract:Wax deposits related to flow assurance are a costly problem in oil production in many fields around the world. Modeling of this process is the main tool for creating and optimizing methods to deal with this problem. This paper considers a new empirical model for the formation of these deposits, based on the results of an array of laboratory studies, theoretical data and technological calculations are presented. The created technique takes into account the conditions of oil flow, data from laboratory studies, a… Show more
