The uninterrupted and safe transport of oil, gas, and water from oil reservoirs to processing facilities is a challenging problem to pipeline designers and operators. In the present text, a review of the most relevant flow assurance problems is presented, describing the available knowledge and technologies for preventing, analyzing, diagnosing, and mitigating the occurrences that can potentially reduce the flow capacity of production systems. The review addresses the flow assurance problems derived from paraffin deposition, asphaltene deposition, emulsions, hydrate formation, and inorganic deposit formation.
