Heavy oil (API gravity =22°) is dominated by high viscosity, asphaltene content, and temperature-sensitive rheology. These properties drive pressure losses, sand mobilization risk, emulsion formation, ...
Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has upgraded its High-Viscosity Flow Loop (HVFL) to meet increased demands in the oil and gas industry. The upgrade has further optimized the facility, allowing ...
At-a-Glance: Heavy oil is a dense, viscous petroleum fluid (typically 10–22 °API) enriched in resins/asphaltenes with low gas content, formed when originally lighter oils are altered after charge by ...
