Single-Phase Wax Deposition Experiments
Rainer Hoffmann,Lene Amundsen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a reliable and accurate procedure for determination of wax thickness and wax roughness from pressure drop, weight, and laser measurements has been developed, which was not captured by the traditional pressure drop and weighing methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Operating Temperatures on Wax Deposition
TL;DR: In this paper, a deposition model called the Michigan Wax Predictor (MWP) was used to establish criteria as to whether the rate of wax deposition increases or decreases as the oil/coolant temperature is changed in a series of flow-loop experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Counterintuitive effects of the oil flow rate on wax deposition
TL;DR: In this paper, the Michigan Wax Predictor (MWP) was applied to elucidate this trend by analyzing the growth rate of the wax deposit in a series of flowloop experiments from first principles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Influence of wax inhibitor on fluid and deposit properties
Rainer Hoffmann,Lene Amundsen +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental campaign has been performed in the wax deposition test rig at Statoil's Research Center Porsgrunn: a fluid sample of a North Sea gas condensate (obtained during the well clean-up) was used for wax deposition tests with increasing concentrations of commercial wax inhibitor.
Journal ArticleDOI
Wax Deposition in Stratified Oil/Water Flow
TL;DR: In this article, the gelation has been observed as a major mechanism for the formation of wax deposits in oil/water stratified flow, and the experiments are carried out in a state-of-the-art flow loop using a North Sea gas condensate and formation water.
