Abstract
Asphaltene deposits can reduce the productivity of the reservoir as well as foul piping and surface equipment. Current chemical and mechanical methods for treating deposition are only partially effective partly because the deposition process is poorly understood. The most commonly way to asphaltene precipitation reduction is applying an asphaltene inhibitor. In order to investigate the extent of formation damage by asphaltenes in crude oil this work has used electro kinetic technique to study the adsorption of asphaltenes in rock pores. Most researchers investigate the kinetics of adsorption by monitoring changes in the concentration of asphaltene or polymer in a dispersion of adsorbent particles or capillaries. This study is a coherent approach to measure amount of asphaltene adsorption on rock surface and survey effect of asphaltene inhibitors on precipitation reduction in porous media.
