Abstract
Background Recently high-viscosity oil fields, where non-Newtonian crudes are met, are rapidly developed. Non-Newtonian viscosity dependence on the flow rate imposes certain requirements to the transportation of such petroleum. Aims and Objectives To improve the rheological properties, the kinematic viscosity of the heaviest Azerbaijan oil from Muradhanlinskoye field, in particular, so that to facilitate pipeline transportation of the tank oil. Methods Laboratory experiments and analysis of the lab data. Conclision Laboratory experiments and analysis of laboratory data proved the suitability of nanostructured coordination polymers for transporting high-viscosity oil from Azerbaijan Muradhanlinskoye field. Transportation with coordination polymers involves injection of polymer and diesel alkaline waste (DAW) through hydrodynamic cavitator. This significantly reduces viscosity of heavy oil during transportation. Coordination polymer-based composites have been developed and tested. Use of composite solves a number of technological problems associated with the transport of high-viscosity oil.
