One of the major decisive for flow assurance crude oil is its constitution and solid deposits successful management. Wax deposition challenges and its control can be determined with the right prediction from wax deposition modelling.

Abstract:
Wax deposition along the extensive oilfield pipelines is a problem that affects the flow assurance. To solve it, one must monitor the wax formation in its initial stage. In this light, nuclear techniques are an effective alternative solution, as they can detect characteristics of materials or substances in an indirect and non-invasive manner. The present work shows a computational model using the MCNP6 (Monte Carlo N-Particle 6) code and the gamma radiation transmission profiling technique to detect different wax thickness. This fact is directly related to the attenuation of the gamma radiatio

Daqing Gulong shale oil exhibits elevated wax content, a high wax precipitation point, and a high freezing point.

Wax deposition continues to be a relevant problem for petroleum production and transportation pipelines. This viscous and waxy flow is theoretically modelled with a simple conservation equation system, by expressing the wax layer thickness as function of time and duct length. The flow parameters are written, depending on these independent variables but also on the Reynolds and the Peclet numbers, where effect of latent heat on the wax layer thickness deposit is investigated. A numerical simulation of the flow, for two practical cases, is performed in order to predict the pipeline obstruction.

Abstract:
The physiological status of in vitro-grown coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) plants during acclimatization was studied using nursery-raised seedlings as the control. The percentage of open stomata in leaves of in vitro-grown coconut plants was high at the initial stage of acclimatization but decreased during the course of acclimatization indicating an improvement in stomatal regulation. A progressive increase in the stomatal density, epicuticular wax deposition and leaf thickness in in vitro-grown plants was observed during acclimatization. As a result of the low light intensity, the epidermal cells

The extensive exploration and development of shallow water oil fields on the continental shelf require the search for new sources of hydrocarbon reserves and movement towards the deep-water or Arctic areas. Today, the development of technologies enables oil production in complex conditions of the Arctic and deep-water shelf. Such production, however, is associated with high technological and environmental risks, which necessitates the development of innovative technologies and means to mitigate environmental risks.

Abstract:
In the oil industry today, the issue of combating deposits of asphaltene-resin-paraffinic substances (ARPD) remains relevant. At the moment, the most common method in the Perm Territory for removing ARPD in wells operated by electric centrifugal pumps is mechanized (mechanical dewaxing units). This method is the main one in the fight against wax deposits, but does not provide absolute protection. The least costly way to deal with ARPD is the use of flushing with hot oil or water, but this also does not always provide sufficient efficiency.

SiC coatings were successfully synthesized on NextelTM440 fibers by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) using methyltrichlorosilane as the original SiC source at 1373 K. After deposited, the fibers were fully surrounded by uniform coatings with some bulges. The X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HR-TEM) results indicated that the coatings were composed of β-SiC and free carbon. Moreover, thickness control of the coatings could be carried out by adjusting the deposition time. The coating thickness rose exponentially,

Abstract Liquid repellent layers can be fabricated by coating a fractal-like layer of candle soot particles with a silicon oxide layer, combusting the soot at 600 °C and subsequently silanizing with perfluoroalkylsilanes. Drops of different liquids deposited on these so called “superamphiphobic” layers easily roll off thanks to the low liquid-solid adhesion. The lower value of the surface tension of liquids that can be repelled depends on details of the processing.

By applying assisting cathode the deposition uniformity in plannar pattern depositing was significantly improved with an increased thickness ratio of edge to center for the plating sample. P
