Fractionation and Characterization of Petroleum Asphaltene: Focus on Metalopetroleomics
Asphaltenes, as the heaviest and most polar fraction of petroleum, have been characterized by various analytical techniques. A variety of fractionation methods have been carried out to separate asphaltenes into multiple subfractions for further ...

Micromechanism of petroleum asphaltene aggregation
The periodic molecular structure model of solvent-asphaltene system is constructed using molecular mechanical and molecular dynamical methods. The influences of six kinds of different solvents (Nitrobenzene, Quinoline, Pyridine, 1-methylnaphthalene ...

A Novel Method for Mitigation of Asphaltene Deposition in the Wellstring [PDF]
Asphaltene precipitation and deposition is a serious problem in many Iranian fields. The deposited asphaltene results in partial or total blockage of the wellbore and wellstring reducing or completely seizing oil production.
