A review on Asphaltene Deposition Investigations

A review on Asphaltene Deposition Investigations

Changing pressure, temperature and composition cause instability in crude oil and create a problematic issue which is called asphaltene deposition. Asphatene deposition causes problems in wettability alteration and flow assurance in different parts of petroleum industry so asphaltene deposition become a challenging issue in petroleum engineering.it is necessary to predict asphaltene deposition and investigate parameters which affect asphaltene deposition.in literature numerous investigations exist. In this study we are going to represent a summary of previous studies and analyze different experimental setups and parameters affect on deposition
