The ClearWELL device induces a highfrequency<br />
AC signal throughout the conduit<br />
system of a well, regardless of the flow<br />
direction, causing paraffin to precipitate in the<br />
fluid flow and be carried away rather than<br />
adhering to the walls of tubing, flowlines, and<br />
pipelines.<br />
This pig, pulled after a flowline run postinstallation<br />
of the ClearWELL device, showed<br />
considerably less paraffin than the operator had<br />
expected.<br />
