The article discusses the results of a study on the selection of wax inhibitors that can be used at the Kondinskoye oil field during transportation and dehydration of the emulsion.Asphaltene precipitation is one of the most serious issues in oil production. The experiment was conducted in order to select the most effective wax inhibitors. We have carried out laboratory tests to choose the most effective wax inhibitor in the conditions of oil production, collection, preparation and external transport systems at the Kondinskoye oil field. Based on the data obtained, wax inhibitor-2, wax inhibitor-4, and wax inhibitor-6 have shown the best results in ensuring the efficiency of inhibition, which should be at least 70 %, and, therefore, they can be allowed to pilot tests. The recommended initial dosage of inhibitors according to the results obtained during pilot tests should be at least 500 g/t of oil.
