Wax settling issues in crude oil

How can you test for wax settling and avoid deposition issues?

To maintain the world's energy supply it is essential to ensure the efficient production, storage, transportation, and refinement of crude oil. Dennis Compton and Ruth Downie, from the Infineum Crude Oil Additives Group, explain how additives and a new field-specific test are the most reliable ways to handle the wax management issues that can arise throughout the crude oil life cycle, thus ensuring that lines and valves are not blocked and oil continues to flow freely.
