    Abstract: The geochemistry of crude oils from the Niger Delta, Nigeria, were evaluated using the characterization of C19 to C35 terpanes. Analyses of two representative crude oils from Western and Central Niger Delta showed abundances of C19 to C29 tricyclic terpanes constituted 12.09% and 29.74%, C24 tetracyclic terpane 0.31% and 0.15% and C27 to C35 pentac...

    Abstract: Gas hydrates account for a huge flow assurance encounter in the passage of natural gas through pipelines. Its undesirability stems from the fact that these solids reduce pipe diameter open to gas flow, and challenge pipeline integrity, therefore leading to bursting pipes and increasing costs. Hydrates undergo four phases of development: entrainment... Show More
