Equipment for paraffin removal from oil pipelines in order to ensure energy saving in Arctic conditions

Abstract

The paper describes a new method for solving one of the global problems – paraffin rempval from pipelines. The problem is relevant for all oil producing and transporting companies of the Russian Federation and other countries. The method for solving these problems has several advantages, including duration of the overhaul period, high removal efficiency and profitability due to the use of fuel cells. The methodallows for maintaning a constant temperatures equal to the melting point of paraffin.

Probability-Statistical Models to Forecast Hydraulic Fracturing Efficiency

“…As an alternative to single-stage hydraulic fracturing, a multistage hydraulic fracturing technique has been developed. A horizontal wellbore is drilled into the formation and the technology of creating several fractures spaced at a certain interval from each other is used [4,11].…”

“…Despite numerous studies in the field of reservoir productivity increasing with single-and multi-stage hydraulic fracturing techniques employing, some unsolved questions remain. The authors studied the publications and textbooks [11,12], carried out research using the apparatus of mathematical statistics in conditions of the Shirotnoye Priobje Latitudinal Ob Region) oil field and identified the goal and objectives of the study.…”
