Flow assurance methods for transporting heavy and waxy crude oils via pipelines without chemical additive intervention
Most of the unconventional fossil fuel reserves consist of heavy crude oil. Crude oil is transported through pipelines, land, and cargo tankers. It loses its ability to flow below its pour point. Therefore, crude oil needs to be heated above its pour point, or it requires some mechanism to reduce vi...
