- Abstract
The application of nanoparticles has been widely used in the oil and gas industry research activities. In this study, the magnetic molybdenum disulphide (MoS2) was synthesized from molybdenum disulphide. The magnetic MoS2 were then characterized by FTIR, XRD, BET and particle size analyzer. Then, rheometer was used to determine the changes of viscosity with the effect on asphaltene deposition. For wax deposition, cold experiment was done with different concentration of magnetic MoS2 to determine the amount of wax deposited. The results showed that increasing the concentration of MoS2 will reduce the asphaltene precipitation and wax deposition of heavy oil.
