EXPERIMENTAL INVESTIGATION ON ETHYLENETETRAFLUOROETHYLENE INNER COATED PIPE FOR WAX DEPOSITON

The paraffinic deposition on the inner surface of subsea pipelines presents a costly problem in the production and transportation of oil. The problem is caused by unprocessed or partly processed waxy crude oil transported through the cold subsea pipeline over a long distance and can reduce the pi...
