Main Needs Identified
High viscosity of produced fluids and low volumetric efficiency of ESP.
High pressures in the production system.
High electric consumption associated with overpressured production system.
Fluids Compatibility and Organic material precipitation.
Solution Development at Laboratory
It was designed the need SF – FL product according to the properties of WHA3 sample.
Basic Characterization WHA3
°API @60°F
14.3
BS&W [% v/v]
48
Viscosity [cSt]
1347.7 @176°F
Results – Heavy Oil ALS – ESP2
Oil mobility improvements and reductions on pressures in the production system.
The viscosity is reduced from 9795 cSt to 903 cSt with a percentage of reduction of 91% @ 122°F.
It was evaluated by the application of nanocomposites. However, it was obtained the best results with Smart Fluid technologies.
The application of the additive does not represent incompatibilities with the evaluated oil.
