In the last decade, there has been a swift development in several scientific research works in
which the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique has played a critical role in …

Thermodynamic inhibitors have been widely used to prevent hydrate formation in natural
gas hydrate exploitation and oil/gas transportation. In this article, molecular dynamics …

In this study, a whole asphaltene sample was first aged with five dolomite core samples.
Then the core samples were washed with toluene; this asphaltene was named the bulk sub …

This study investigates the properties of asphaltene fractions in porous media and their role
in reducing permeability and porosity. Based on the classification of a whole asphaltene …

In recent years, chemical solvents have played an effective role in petroleum laboratory and
field environments. In this study, calcite samples of an oil reservoir from southern Iran were …

Halite scaling has been observed in the oil/gas field with high TDS and low water cut. Due to
its higher solubility, slight changes in temperature (T) and pressure (P) and evaporative …

Halite scaling has caused serious issues in oil/gas field with high TDS and low water cut due
to temperature drop and evaporation of the produced water. Simulation of such field …

Inorganic scales are one of the most common flow assurance challenges damaging well
productivity and decreasing injectivity in oil and gas reservoirs by reducing permeability. In …

Halite scales have been considered as fluid flow barrier in near-wellbore that lead to
productivity reduction by impairing the permeability. To evaluate reservoirs, core analysis is …

Mineral scale deposition is a problematic challenge that leads to reduced oil production and
workover operations if not treated appropriately. Among well-known sparingly soluble salts …
