Inhibition and remediation of hydrates, scale, paraffin / wax and asphaltene
Deposition of the high-molecular-weight components of petroleum fluids as solid precipitates in surface facilities, pipelines, downhole tubulars, and within the reservoir are well-recognized production problems. Depending on the reservoir fluid and the type of recovery process, the deposited solid may consist of asphaltenes, waxes, or a mixture of these materials. The deposits also can contain resins, crude oil, fines, scales, and water. Sources: Petroleum Engineering Handbook, PetroWiki.
