Asphaltene Behavior during Thermal Recovery: A Molecular Study Based on Realistic Structures
Asphaltene precipitation and deposition can occur at both the surface and subsurface levels, leading to the formation of organic-based scales. Asphaltene precipitation can also lead to changes in petrophysical properties such as wettability, which affects the ultimate recovery. Asphaltene precipitat...
