HYDRATES
• A crystal of
hydrocarbon and water
• Necessary Conditions:
– Temperature (15 to
20C)
– Pressure
– Free water

Mitigation
• Insulate flowlines and mitigate during cool down
• Blow down to atmosphere
• Circulate inhibitor or dead oil
• Heated fluid circulation
• Direct electric heating
• Chemical inhibition
• Methanol
• MEG
• Low Dose Hydrate Inhibition (LDHI)
