Abstract:Scale deposition is a prominent issue in the flow assurance that needs to be prevented to avoid reduction in the oil production. Scale includes various types of non-organic salts that might deposit in the reservoir and/or in the production tubing under different production conditions. A common practice to prevent scale deposition is to carry on scale inhibitor squeeze treatment. However, conventional squeeze treatment suffers from slow adsorption rate, limited adsorption amount and quick desorption rate. Colle… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
