Abstract
A method for the use of a monocarboxylic acid composition additive to inhibit formation of naphthenic deposits from crude oil is described. The invention provides for the inhibition of naphthenic using environmentally acceptable compositions, reducing waste water contamination. In use of the monocarboxylic acid compositions, the requirements for further additives, such as emulsion breakers, may also be reduced or eliminated.
