Development of a Computational Fluid Dynamics Compositional Wellbore Simulator for Modeling of Asphaltene Deposition

Abstract: The asphaltene problem is a two-step process: (1) asphaltene precipitation, as predicted by the thermodynamic model, and(2) asphaltene deposition, the amount of which is estimated by the kinetic model. Asphaltene precipitation is a prerequisite but not a sufficient condition for deposition. Deposition is dependent on other factors such as surface properties, phase behavior, rheology, and flow patterns. As a result, in addition to understanding thermodynamic and kinetic models, it is critical to also understand… Show more
