| Abstract: | The present invention provides for effective hydrate-inhibiting formulations comprising gelling agents (e.g., galactomannan polysaccharides, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, L-rhamnose or D-glucuronic acid based polysaccharides), polar and non-polar solvents (methanol, mono ethylene glycol, hexane, heptane, toluene, xylene, glycols, butyl glycol ethers, DMSO etc.), or a mixture thereof, In an embodiment, the present invention enhanced the interaction of active components (inhibitors) with the hydrate formers/liquid hydrocarbon phase while optimizing the formulations for their hydrophobic, hydrophilic, or amphiphilic nature. | ||
