CO2 and N2 injection is an effective enhanced oil recovery technology in the oilfield especially for low-permeability and extra low-permeability reservoirs. However, these processes can induce an asphaltene deposition during oil production.

Effect of Asphaltenes and Asphaltene Dispersants on Wax Precipitation and Treatment
A detailed understanding of the interactions between wax and asphaltenes with other components of crude oils and the effect of treatments with paraffin inhibitors (PIs) and asphaltene dispersants (ADs), with a focus on identifying specific structure-activity relationships, is necessary to develop effective flow assurance strategies.

Asphaltene Stability of Some Iraqi Dead Crude oils
Asphaltene is one of the fractions of the crude oil which is soluble in aromatics such as benzene or toluene and insoluble in alkane such as n-heptane, n-pentane or petroleum ether (mixture of alkane compounds).

Visbreaking of an asphaltenic coal residue
A residue from deasphalting of liquids obtained by direct liquefaction of a Spanish subbituminous coal was processed by thermal treatment. This residue is rich in asphaltenes which do not undergo cracking easily and are coke precursors in thermal cracking.

Asphaltene Adsorption from Toluene onto Silica through Thin Water Layers.
Asphaltenes in crude oil play a pivotal role in reservoir oil production because they control rock-surface wettability. Upon crude oil invasion into a brine-filled reservoir trap, rock adherence of sticky asphaltene agglomerates formed at the crude oil ...

Long-time contact of heavy crude oil with rock leads to an adsorption phenomenon, which causes the rock surface to become oil-wet and appears as a barrier to the fluid flow in the porous media.
