Disclosed are compositions including up to 20 wt % of a paraffin inhibiting polymer, a refined petroleum distillate and one or more low Log P molecules, wherein the compositions are stable and flow at a temperature between about 0° C. and −40° C., in many cases between about −20° C. and −40° C. The low Log P molecules are non-polymeric, have a Log P of less than 1, are liquids at 20° C. (1 atm), and have boiling points over 60° C., in many cases over 100° C. The compositions are useful paraffin inhibitor concentrates for use in the petroleum industry wherein the concentrates are stable, pumpable, and pourable at temperatures as low as −40° C. and as high as 60° C.
