Abstract

Downhole mineral scale prevention in oilfields with the use of chemical inhibitors being applied in squeeze treatments were studied by precipitation/dissolution process. The solubility of the precipitated inhibitor complex (C₅) and the dissolution rate (r₄) governed the dynamics of the inhibitor return curve. These predictions were experimentally confirmed by analyzing core flooding results using both outcrop and reservoir cores.
