What are crude oil flow improvers (COFI)?

Crude oil flow improvers are additives used to enhance the flow characteristics of crude oil during transportation through pipelines. They prevent issues like pipeline blockages, paraffin or asphaltene deposition, and improve overall oil flow.

How do crude oil flow improvers work?

COFIs modify the properties of crude oil, reducing its viscosity and altering its flow behavior. They inhibit the agglomeration of waxy substances (like paraffins) or the deposition of asphaltenes, which can hinder pipeline flow.

Why are crude oil flow improvers necessary?

During oil transportation through pipelines, the temperature changes and pressure drops can cause the crude oil to solidify or form deposits, obstructing the pipeline flow. COFIs prevent these issues, ensuring a consistent and smooth oil flow.
