Abstract: Copolymer additives for crude oils, crude oil mixtures of the copolymer additives and crude oils, and methods for producing or forming the crude oil mixtures are provided. The crude oil mixtures and methods comprise at least copolymer additive introduce or applied to crude oil, wherein the at least one copolymer additive comprises one or more copolymers of vinylpyrrolidone and one or more alpha-olefins.

Abstract: Citrate polyester additives for crude oils, mixtures of the citrate polyester additives and crude oils, and methods for producing or forming the mixtures are provided. The mixtures and methods comprise at least one citrate polyester additive introduce or applied to crude oil, wherein the at least one citrate polyester additive comprises one or more citrate crosspolymers.

Abstract: A method of treating petroleum fluids includes adding a wax inhibitor composition to the petroleum fluids, the wax inhibitor composition, including a wax inhibitor; a non-ionic surfactant or a cationic surfactant; and a co-solvent blend. A method of treating a petroleum fluid, includes adding a wax inhibitor composition to the petroleum fluid, the wax inhibitor composition including a wax inhibitor; an anionic surfactant selected from at least one of an isopropylamine dodecylsulfonic acid salt or an isopropylamine linear dodecylbenzene sulfonate; and a co-solvent blend.

Abstract: Embodiments relate to fluid flow improvers containing a copolymer with a siloxane group incorporated thereto. The fluid flow improvers may include polymer/copolymer having the characteristic of inhibiting wax/paraffin crystalline growth, modifying wax/paraffin crystal growth, dispersing of wax/paraffin, preventing the deposition of wax/paraffin, aiding the removal of wax/paraffin or depressing of the pour point of a wax/paraffin-containing fluid. The fluid flow improvers described may be employed alone, or may be used in combination with one or more additives for improving the low temperature flowability and/or other properties and may also be employed in combination with one or more organic solvents and/or aqueous solvents.
