DEPRESSOR ADDITIVE FOR OIL PUMPING

The purpose of the research was to study rheological properties of Azerbaijani oils from the Sangachali and Muradkhanli fields. In order to improve rheological properties of the oil produced from the Muradkhanli and Sangachali fields, a Russian-made depressant СНПХ -2005 additive was used. To determine the optimal concentration of the СНПХ-2005 and confirm its positive effect on oil and oil products, control samples were prepared with this additive in oil M-8 and the oil from the above fields with the calculation of 0.5 kg/t, 0.8 kg/t and 1.0 kg/t. In parallel, similar samples were prepared with the depressant АзНИИ. The pour points of the samples were investigated at -5 0С, -100С and -200С on the rotational viscometer REOTECT-2. It found that the sample with the СНПХ -2005 additive (at the concentration of 0.8%) in the M-8 oil has a lower pour point (minus 40°C) as compared to a similar sample with the depressant АзНИИ (-32°C). The sample with the depressant СНПХ-2005 (at the concentration of 0.8%) and oil reveals the best rheological properties (minus 38°C versus -30°C). As a result of the studies carried out, it was determined that the introduction of the depressant СНПХ-2005 improves rheological parameters of the oil from the above fields, and thereby makes it possible to refuse additional heating in low temperature areas when pumping oil through the oil pipeline.
