Paraffin formation has been a problem for many oil producers. Current technology for alleviating the problem of paraffin build up consists of: (1) mechanical removal, (2) removal with hot oil or other solvents, and (3) treating the wellbore with a paraffin dispersant or inhibitor. This paper will discuss the application of a new form of paraffin inhibitor and a novel technique for introducing the paraffin inhibitor into the producing formation. The study was conducted in the Dean Formation, Ackerly Dean Unit (ADU), Dawson County, Texas.
