Experimental Investigation of Deposition and Wall Growth in Water Saturated Hydrocarbon Pipelines in the Absence of Free Water

Using a combination of micromechanical force and flowloop measurements, hydrate deposition on a pipe wall surface was investigated for ‘dry’ hydrates formed in the bulk phase and for hydrates growing on the pipe surface. Cyclopentane ‘dry’ hydrates (without a free water phase) were used to predict...
