Asphaltene Dispersant

A crude oil system can become unstable because of changes in hydrocarbon composition, pressure, or temperature during normal production from the reservoir or during commingling with dissimilar crude oils. These changes can generate asphaltene particles that can result in significant production and refining problems. The generation of these particles is a two-step process: phase separation and asphaltene particle growth. Phase separation occurs when nanosize asphaltene particles from the crude oil precipitate and grow into large aggregates. ACPA asphaltene dispersants prevent this grow of aggregates, ACPA offers many types of asphaltene dispersants and technical supports for any of this problems.
