Abstract:Formation damage phenomenon constitutes serious operational and economic problems to the petroleum production. Oil production in certain reservoirs is inadvertently impaired by precipitation and deposition of the high molecular weight components such as paraffin wax. A facile applicability of synergistic effects of thermochemical reaction and ultrasonication to mitigate wax deposition has been presented in this article. Thermochemical heat source has to do with exothermic heat generation from certain chemical … Show more
