STUDY AND APPLICATION OF SOUND WAVE VISCOSITY REDUCTION WITH HYDRO-POWER

As a new application of physical production technology, an valid effect was gained with sound wave in oil production of wax control and viscosity reduction. The sonic generator with hydro-power was introduced in detail, and the operating parameters of it were tested and optimized. A few sonic generators which has better application effect have been picked out, which can reduce viscidity of crude oil largely and lessen the flow resistance of oil in well bore. It is an effective measure of oil production which the oil is with higher viscidity and more wax.
