Asphaltene Dispersants

PZT-ASPDIS-1 is formulated to prevent and disperse asphaltene precipitation in crude oil production and transport systems. It stabilises asphaltene micelles in solution so they remain dispersed in the crude rather than flocculating and depositing on tubing walls, flowlines, and surface equipment. Typical treatment is 50 to 500 ppm on produced fluid volume, with the effective rate depending on the crude oil’s asphaltene content and the specific system conditions, so an initial dose should be set from a bottle test on the actual produced fluid rather than from a generic figure. Supplied in 55-gallon drums and 5-gallon pails, with custom packaging available on request.

Use Cases & Applications
  • Asphaltene deposition control in crude oil production and transport systems
  • Continuous downhole or flowline injection where asphaltene onset conditions are expected
  • Batch treatment ahead of anticipated pressure or temperature drops that trigger precipitation
Pros
  • Prevents deposition rather than only remediating it after the fact
  • Wide treatment window (50-500 ppm) allows tuning to crude asphaltene content
  • Soluble in aromatic solvents and crude, so it disperses readily in the produced stream
Cons & Limitations
  • Effective dose is crude-specific: a bottle test on the actual produced fluid is needed to set the rate
  • Aromatic-solvent carrier warrants review of handling and HSE requirements before field use
