WAX DEPOSITION BEHAVIOR IN ETHYLENETETRAFLUOROETHYLENE COATED PIPE AS COMPARED TO PVC AND STEEL PIPES AT DYNAMIC AND STATIC CONDITIONS.

The deposition of wax on the inner surface of subsea pipelines is a prevalent problem during the production and transportation of waxy crude oil. It can reduce effective diameter and restrict fluid flow through the pipeline. The present study evaluates the effect of Steel pipe, Polyvinyl Chloride...
