Alterations in paraffin wax crystal networks induced by asphaltenes and pour point depressants, investigated by atomic force microscopy
Savulescu, George-Claudiu; Rücker, Maja; Simon, Sebastien Charles Roger; Øye, Gisle (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Wax crystallization in pipelines in cold environments is a key factor affecting flow assurance during crude oil production. Polar crude oil components, such as asphaltenes, and polymeric pour point depressants (PPDs) have ... -
The influence of asphaltenes and pour point depressants on the paraffin wax crystallization investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance and atomic force microscopy
Savulescu, George-Claudiu (Doctoral theses at NTNU, 2024:67, Doctoral thesis, 2024)Wax crystallization in pipelines in cold environments is a key challenge for flow assurance during oil production. Pour point depressants have been used to delay wax crystallization and gelling, by modifying rheological ... -
Understanding the Effect of Asphaltenes and Wax Inhibitors on Wax Crystallization by Improved NMR Techniques
Savulescu, George-Claudiu; Øye, Gisle; Simon, Sebastien Charles Roger; Sørland, Geir (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Wax crystallization represents one of the main factors impacting flow assurance during oil production. Pour point depressants (PPDs) and asphaltenes present in crude oil have been linked to modifications in wax crystallization ...
