Computer Simulation of Asphaltenes
Petroleum Chemistry, 2018 The review describes theoretical approaches based on computer simulations at various levels of details (from quantum chemical calculations to atomistic and coarse-grained models) to study asphaltenes and systems containing asphaltenes. The used methods are described, their advantages and disadvantages are discussed in terms of computational costs and ...

A Novel Method for Mitigation of Asphaltene Deposition in the Wellstring [PDF]
Iranian Journal of Chemistry & Chemical Engineering, 2010 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.

Asphaltene precipitation trend and controlling its deposition mechanism
Natural Gas Industry B, 2022 The B oilfield is a large integrated oilfield in the Middle East. Asphaltene precipitates from crude oil and deposits on solid surfaces, affording considerable blockages of the formation, wellbore, and production equipment.
