One of the major issues in the oil industry is asphaltene precipitation. Modeling asphaltene
precipitation is still considered as a complex problem due to various characteristics of …

Inner coatings have emerged as a novel technique to prevent the deposition of paraffin, wax,
scale, and corrosion of pipelines during oil production and transport. Few studies addressed …

The perturbed-chain version of Statistical Association Fluid Theory (PC-SAFT) emerged as a
powerful tool to study the phase behavior of complex fluids such as polymers and …

The precipitation and deposition of asphaltene on solid surfaces present a significant
challenge throughout all stages of petroleum recovery, from hydrocarbon reservoirs in …

In order to reveal the occurrence state and forming mechanism of multi-type microscopic
remaining oil controlled by both static reservoir factors and dynamic development factors …

Asphaltene often produces problems in upstream and downstream sections of crude oil
transportation and processing equipment. These issues are directly related to the …

Modelling of asphaltene precipitation and deposition in petroleum reservoirs requires
adjustable parameters and introduces uncertainty sources. To address the main sources of …

A generalized algorithm is proposed for four-phase flash calculations in hydrocarbon-water
systems in which asphaltene has tendency to be precipitated. The systems which are going …

In order to study the remaining oil distribution and production in alluvial fans controlled by
both static geologic factors and dynamic development factors, 2D and 3D macroscopic …

During the large-scale fracturing and exploitation of unconventional reservoirs, artificial
fractures progressively widen in reservoirs with natural fracture development, which is highly …
