... Abstract Flow assurance problem of gas hydrate formation in subsea transportation system of crude oil is addressed in this research work. The paper depicts the synthesis and evaluation of propylene glycol quantum dots as low-dosage hydrate inhibitor (LDHI) for preventing / delaying gas hydrate...

...) was compared with that of the conventional hydrate inhibitor N-Vinyl Caprolactam (N-VCap). Varying weights of Surf. X were evaluated in the laboratory mini flow loop. Pressure versus Temperature, change in Pressure versus Time plots showed that Surf. X performed better than the conventional N-VCap in almost...

.... Overall, the general consensus is that lower water contents, dispersed water, high shear, thermodynamic inhibitor injection, dosing of anti-agglomerants or kinetic hydrate inhibitors, higher oil viscosities, and oils with natural chemical surfactant properties can be favorable for ensuring successful...

..., lower production rates, solids-accumulation, and increased remediation time and costs. Several thermal, mechanical, and chemical methods are used to mitigate these challenges, and, of the chemical techniques available, paraffin inhibitors are deployed to mitigate the deposition problem. Several...

... Abstract The risk of gas hydrate formation is one of the major concerns for offshore flow assurance. Solutions of methanol (MeOH) and mono-ethylene-glycol (MEG) are most often employed as thermodynamic inhibitors (THI) to prevent the formation of hydrate plugs. This study involves experimental...

... This paper is to represent reviews of low dosage hydrate inhibitor's (LDHI) evolution and advances, and to provide a general guide for LDHI considerations, historically, hydrate risk has been managed by keeping the fluids warm, removing water, and/or by injecting thermodynamic hydrate...
