Flow Assurance Solids in Oil and Gas Production (Paperback)

The precipitation and deposition of solids are a major challenge in
the production of oil and gas. Flow assurance solids are formed
because of unavoidable changes in temperature, pressure and
composition of the oil-gas-water flowstream, from reservoir
conditions to processing conditions. The advent of subsea
production and the increased exploitation of heavy crudes have made
flow assurance issues dominant in ensuring efficient and safe
exploitation of hydrocarbon assets. Five troublesome flow assurance
solids are described in the book: asphaltene, paraffin wax, natural
gas hydrate, naphthenate and inorganic scale. These big-five solids
are presented in stand-alone chapters. Each chapter is designed to
be readable without clutter. Derivations of equations and
descriptions of supporting details are given in several appendices.
The book is intended for professional engineers and natural
scientist working in E&P companies, engineering companies,
service companies and specialized companies. An understanding of
the big-five solids is required throughout the lifetime of oil and
gas assets, from early development to abandonment. The technical,
safety and environmental risks associated with deposition problems
in near-wellbore formations, production tubing, wellhead equipment,
flowlines and processing facilities, are relevant for decisions in
the oil and gas industry and in outside regulatory and financial
entities.
