Phase Inversion in Water–Oil Emulsions with and without Gas Hydrates

摘要: In deepwater exploration and production, where long tieback multiphase pipelines are a preferred economic option, gas hydrate blockages pose serious problems for flow assurance to produce hydrocarbons with high water cuts because the traditional techniques, such as insulation, heating, or injection of thermodynamic inhibitors, often become economically logistically impractical. The potential transporting particles using antiagglomerant (AA) in could be an attractive alternative approaches. cut systems, by converting some phase into particles, behavior emulsion–hydrate mixture strongly depends on water–oil emulsion which acts carrier fluid. Generally, AAs work surface active agent influences interface between oil hence impacts morphology hydrate-free (without particles) during formation. However, information previo...
