An improved modeling approach for asphaltene deposition in oil wells including particles size distribution

open access: yesOil & Gas Science and Technology, 2018
There are several approaches to model Asphaltene deposition process in the wellbore. There are different assumptions to simplify the problem in the previous investigations for specific conditions, limiting the prediction range of the models. In this work,

Simulation of the Asphaltene Deposition Rate in Oil Wells under Different Multiphase Flow Condition

open access: yesEnergies, 2023
As the wellbore pressure falls below the bubble point pressure, the light components in the oil phase are liberated, forming additional vapor, and the single-phase flow becomes a gas–liquid two-phase flow.

Modeling of asphaltene particle deposition from turbulent oil flow in tubing: Model validation and a parametric study

open access: yesPetroleum, 2016
The deposition of asphaltenes on the inner wall of oil wells and pipelines causes flow blockage and significant production loss in these conduits. The major underlying mechanism(s) for the deposition of asphaltene particles from the oil stream are still ...

Deposition of Asphaltene from Destabilized Dispersions in Heptane–Toluene [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Deposition of carbonaceous materials, such as asphaltene, is a major problem in petroleum production. During production, changing environmental conditions destabilize asphaltene, resulting in dispersions that are out of equilibrium, where asphaltene is ...
