Wax deposition and gelation of waxy crude oil in production pipelines are detrimental to crude oil transportation from offshore fields. A waxy crude oil forms intra-gel voids in pipelines under cooling mode, particularly below the pour point temperature. Consequently, intrusion of non-reacting gas i...
