A mathematical model of the pulsator for cleaning paraffin deposits of pipelines and downhole equipment

Abstract

Abstract An important task for the oil industry is considered the issue of cleaning paraffin deposits of downhole and surface equipment; Xmas tree, oil gathering pipelines, oil treatment plants. As a result of the paraffin blockage, there is a decrease in oil production, an increase in pressure drop in pipelines, disruption of the normal operation of oil collection and treatment devices, the field operation itself is still difficult, therefore preventing and removing paraffin deposits with various cleaning methods is a pressing problem in the oil industry.
