CHARACTERIZATION AND EVALUATION OF WAXY CRUDE OIL FLOW

Abstract Part of the oil found in the Brazilian subsoil has a high wax content, which makes its flow process difficult at low temperatures because of the increase in the viscosity of the fluid. This paper studied the flow behavior of waxy crude oil under variation in the temperature of the external...
