Abstract: A treatment composition for reducing viscosity, pour point, and precipitate content of a hydrocarbon fluid at temperatures below 90° F., preferably 34° F. to 90° F. The treatment composition includes one or more mixed fatty acid methyl esters, an aromatic mixture consisting essentially of C9 to C15 aromatic compounds, and a main solvent consisting essentially of low odor kerosene, low odor diesel, or a mixture of low odor diesel or low odor kerosene. The treatment composition solubilizes hydrocarbon deposits for removal. The treatment composition also solubilizes paraffins and asphaltenes in a hydrocarbon fluid to prevent or mitigate the formation of hydrocarbon deposits.

Abstract: An aqueous cleaning composition for removing paraffin, asphaltene, and scale deposits or plugs from a hydrocarbon system. The aqueous cleaning composition is formed of a cleaning composition and an aqueous liquid. The cleaning composition contains about 21-33% of a silicate, about 20-35% of a peroxygen, about 3-15% of a phosphate, about 15-40% of a carbonate or bicarbonate, about 1-10% of a chelating agent, about 1-5.5% of a surfactant combination. In one embodiment, the surfactant combination includes a surfactant polymer mixture containing a block polymer and a reverse polymer, and a wetting agent containing a sulfonated material or an ethoxylated alcohol.
