Determination of Possible Point of Wax Depositionalong Flowlines in the Niger Delta
Abstract: The focus of this study is to determine the possible point of wax deposition along an oil flowline in Niger delta. This research commenced with field studies to ascertain the flowline profile. The temperature profile along the flowline was determined using infra-red thermometer. Crude oil sample was taken from wellhead and laboratory analysis was carried out on the crude sample to determine the wax appearance temperature (WAT) of crude and …

Steel inhibitors of gas well steels
Abstract: Corrosion inhibitor is chemical compound or substance that, when added in small concentration to an environment, effectively decreases the corrosion rate. Multiphase oil and gas well flowlines at subsea has studied to corrode by contamination of CO2 gas at different temperature, partial pressure, velocity of flow and properties of scale formed at inner wall. Irrecoverable localized corrosions cause failure of structures those are beyond effects of corrosion inhibitors. Pollution of …

Shale Gas in India: Status and Challenges
Abstract: With decline of production in gas fields, India became sixth largest natural gas importer in the global market. Seeing the domestic demand, it is essential to unlock shale gas from different shale gas plays in India. The key elements of shale gas production include the extensive drilling campaign, the need for hydraulic fracturing and realization of global growing of production facilities and flowlines. Also, advanced technologies are required for development …
