Given the combination of rising global energy demand and the decline in conventional
crudes, heavy crudes are generally considered to be the future energy resource. In many …

Rheological properties of kaolinite particle suspensions in water were studied in the
presence of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). The characterization of slightly and strongly …

In order to improve the flow characteristics, this work aims to study the rheological behavior
of the oil crude (coming from the oil field of Tin Fouye Tabankort/South Algeria) with and …

Aprotic ionic liquids ([C4pyr]+[NTf2]-,[C8mim]+[NTf2]-,[C8mim]+[OTf]-,[C8mim]+[PF6]-
,[C8mim]+[BF4]-,[C12mim]+[NTf2]-, and [C12mim]+[Cl]-) were successfully evaluated as …

Several methods have been used to reduce problems caused by wax precipitation during
the production and/or transportation of waxy crude oil. Polymers are used to improve pour …

CNT based nanofluids have great potential in the field of heat transfer due to their higher
thermal conductivity compared to other categories of nanofluids. However, their applicability …

Research reports reveal the importance of applying various substances to enhance extra-
heavy crude oil pipeline transportation. During the crude oil conduction process, shearing …

Comparative effectiveness of natural surfactant extracted from Sapindus mukorossi in
laboratory and commercial surfactant Brij 30 was determined. Light crude oil was collected …

Abstract In this work, two [60] fullerene derivatives were employed as flow improvers for
waxy crude oil to reduce problems caused by the crystallization of paraffin during the …

A study of the flow behavior of Algerian crude oils obtained from different fields in the TFT
region (Tin Fouye Tabankort/South Algeria) was conducted using the AR2000 rheometer …
