Filed:

Jan 24, 2018

Appl. No.:

15/879293

Inventors:

- Schenectady NY, US
Robert CABLE - Schenectady NY, US

International Classification:

C09K 8/524
C10G 75/04
C08G 8/12
C08G 8/36
F17D 3/12

Abstract:

This invention relates to compositions and a process for stabilizing or improving the solubility of a phenolic resin containing a mixture of linear phenolic resins and calixarenes in a hydrocarbon solvent. This invention also relates to a paraffin-containing fluid composition comprising this stabilized (solubilized) calixarene resin. The invention also relates to methods for dispersing paraffin crystals, inhibiting paraffin crystal deposition, or treating a well or vessel to reduce the deposition of paraffin crystals, with a resin composition containing this stabilized (solubilized) calixarene resin.

Abstract:

This invention relates to an alkoxylated calixarene resin comprising one or more modified calixarene alkoxylate compounds. The invention also relates to a process for preparing a solubilized alkoxylated calixarene resin comprising reacting a phenolic resin mixture, comprising linear phenolic resins and calixarene compounds having phenolic hydroxyl groups, with one or more epoxide-containing compounds to alkoxylate one or more of the phenolic hydroxyl groups of the calixarene compounds to form a solubilized phenolic resin mixture, and reacting the solubilized phenolic resin mixture with one or more alkylene oxides.

Abstract:

A petroleum-based fluid sample may be centrifuged in a centrifuge vial where a light may be passed through the petroleum-based fluid sample to identify an amount of transmitted light at two or more time intervals. The stability of the foulant(s) and/or efficacy of the foulant inhibitors to prevent the destabilization of the foulants may be determined by comparing a change in the amounts of transmitted light through the petroleum-based fluid sample. The petroleum-based fluid sample may include a petroleum-based fluid, at least one foulant, and an optional additive for destabilizing the foulant(s). The additive may be or include a first component, such as but not limited to n-alkanes, iso-alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, cyclo-alkanes, natural gas, natural gas condensate, alcohols, ethers, ketones, organic acids, acetates, carbon dioxide, and combinations thereof.
