  Wax Deposition Modeling and Comparison with Field Data for Some Indian Oil Fields

  By Anand Gupta, Anirbid Sircar

  Abstract: One of the major determinants for flow assurance of crude oil is its constitution and involves successful management of solid deposits. Major challenges in flow assurance are adequate selection of production equipment and pipelines. Control of wax deposition and its challenge can be met with better prediction through wax modeling. Precipitation of paraffin out of supersaturated crude oil mixture is responsible for wax deposits in pipelines. The authors have seen …
