PROCEDE POUR RETARDER LA FORMATION ET/OU REDUIRE LA TENDANCE A L'AGGLOMERATION DES HYDRATES

摘要

Process for delaying the formation and/or reducing the tendency to agglomeration of hydrates in conditions in which a hydrate can form, the hydrates being formed from water and gas. The process is characterised especially in that an additive is employed comprising at least a compound from the group of substituted carboxylic acid hydroxycarbylamides. Application of the process according to the invention to processes employing gases and water, forming hydrates with each other, especially in the oil or gas industry.
