Abstract

1,138,553. Rendering oil pumpable. SHELL INTERNATIONALE RESEARCH MAATSCHAPPIJ N.V. 25 Aug., 1966, No. 38221/66. Heading C5E. A method of treating an oil containing undissolved wax at operating temperatures for convenient handling comprises subjecting a stream of the oil at a temperature at or below that at which solid wax occurs to shearing forces which break down the wax structure and form a dispersion of smaller wax particles in the oil, injecting into the oil a gas in an amount at least sufficient to saturate the oil at the operating temperature and at least atmospheric pressure to inhibit formation of a wax structure in the oil and flowing the resulting composition to a point for subsequent handling. The gas may be nitrogen, CO 2 , flue gas, a hydrocarbon of less than three carbon atoms, or mixtures thereof. The oil so treated is easily pumpable through pipe lines.
