Abstract

The paper considers the current views on the government deposits of asphaltene, resin, and paraffin substances in oilfield equipment and possible solutions to this issue. The authors introduce classification and choose the most effective solvent to determine the optimal method for controlling sediments. The solutions of each sediment component are analyzed by the conductometric method of dispersion analysis with the help of the Coulter counter particle size analyzer, and there is a comparative evaluation of the sizes and ratios in sediments of various oils. In the various oils of the Zyuzeyevskoye field, the content of resinous-asphaltenic substances is above the critical value of 35 wt%. The decrease in the proportion of resinous-asphaltenic substances in the Vereiskian, Bashkirian, and Tournaisian reservoirs is associated with an increase in the oil-bearing rock age. Branching of paraffinic structures and high condensation of polyaromatic structures affect all production processes and oil treatment and transportation. The paper presents the influence of hydrocarbon composition on the development mechanism, composition, and properties of asphaltene, resin, and paraffin substances. The research demonstrates that in order to select the most effective ways of organic substance sediment prevention and removal from the physical–chemical point of view, one needs to obtain an idea about the composition and the properties of the initial oil and the developed deposits.
