Gas hydrate formation is one of the most serious challenges for flow assurance in oil and
gas transportation pipelines as it causes severe safety, environmental, and economic …

In oil, natural gas processing and transmission, gas hydrate blockage and corrosion are two
major flow assurance problems associated with transportation through steel pipelines which …

Kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) have been used in the upstream petroleum industry for
about 25 years to prevent plugging of flow lines with gas hydrates. The main ingredients in …

Gas hydrate inhibition is a relevant topic of flow assurance. Thermodynamic hydrate
inhibitors (THIs) and kinetic hydrate inhibitors (KHIs) are applied to prevent gas hydrates …

The formation of gas hydrates is a major issue during the operation of oil and gas pipelines,
because gas hydrates cause plugging, thereby disrupting the normal oil and gas flows. A …

Gas hydrates pose a serious flow assurance challenge due to their ability to form,
agglomerate, and block subsea flowlines on relatively fast time scales, leading to the loss of …

During the development and application of natural gas, hydrate plugging the pipelines is a
very important issue to solve. Currently, adding thermodynamic hydrate inhibitors (THIs) and …

Ionis liquids (ILs) are promising novel thermodynamic gas hydrate inhibitors (THIs) that have
gained an ongoing experimental and modeling research prospect over a decade. In view of …

It is necessary to understand all the prerequisites, which result in gas hydrate formation for
safe design and control of a variety of processes in petroleum industry. Thermodynamic …

In this work, the dissociation behavior of methane hydrate in quartz sand sediment by
injecting a thermodynamic inhibitor, methanol (MeOH), was investigated using a one …
