Possible applications of visbreaking naphtha in oil production
The article considers possible applications of visbreaking naphtha in oil production. The composition of visbreaking naphtha as well as its ability to solve various asphalt, resin, and paraffin deposits are determined. Rheological properties of heavy oil at different concentrations of visbreaking naphtha are studied. Visbreaking naphtha is proved to be used both as a diluent of heavy oil and a solvent of asphalt, resin, and paraffin deposits.
