Systematic investigation of asphaltene precipitation by experimental and reliable deterministic tools

Asphaltene precipitation in oil operations contributes to serious technical and non-technical issues, which is affected by reservoir conditions such as pressure, temperature, dilution ratio, and type of diluent. In this work, a mathematical correlation is introduced to forecast the weight percent (wt%, g/g) of precipitated asphaltene in light oils. Experimental data are obtained based on high-resolution images taken from high-pressure cell...
