Description
Summary:Flow assurance is a key area for effective production management. It is closely related to solid deposit problems. The solid comes from fluid hydrocarbon solids which include wax, hydrate, and asphaltenes. Asphaltene deposition is one of major problems that ruin production of hydrocarbon and it can deposit anywhere from the reservoir till the surface. Consequently, it is imperative that there should be an approach of minimizing the deposition of asphaltene in production flow lines.
