Asphalt-resin-wax deposits formed during modeling of the process of formation of deposits from oil considered hard to extract are studied. The mechanisms of asphalt-resin-wax deposition that occurs due to different contents in them of high-molecular-weight components and their properties are disclosed. It is shown that oil paraffin hydrocarbons and asphaltenes are redistributed between the oil and the asphalt-resin-wax deposited from it.
