  • Protecting a fluid stream from fouling using a phase change material
    Patent number: 10590742
    Abstract: A system and method for delivering heat to a fluid in a fluid production pipeline. Particles are injected into a line adjacent the fluid production pipeline. The particles include a microencapsulated liquid exothermic phase change material configured to undergo a phase change by solidification and release heat at a selected temperature. The released heat is transferred to the fluid production pipeline.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 16, 2017
    Date of Patent: March 17, 2020
    Assignee: ExxonMobil Upstream Research Company
    Inventors: Nader S. Berchane, Chisa K. Brookes, Douglas J. Turner, Jason W. Lachance
  • Protecting a fluid stream from fouling
    Patent number: 10487986
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system and methods for protecting a fluid stream from fouling using particles that include phase change materials. In an example, the particles are injected into the fluid stream and release energy at a selected temperature, which may warm the fluid stream.
