ASPHALTENE SIMULATION USING A PSEUDO-COMPONENT FRAMEWORK
Asphaltene simulation is performed by modeling asphaltene using physical changes. A pseudo-component framework is used to simulate asphaltene precipitation, asphaltene flocculation, and asphaltene deposition in a subsurface region.

For example, use of the pseudo-component framework for asphaltene simulation enables tracking of asphaltene as it is found in different states (precipitated, flocculated, deposited). Use of the pseudo-component framework for asphaltene simulation enables chemical reactions to be replaced by a flash and adsorption framework. Asphaltene simulation using the pseudo-component framework exhibits stable and fast convergence.

STABILIZATION MECHANISM FOR POWER CABLES AND CONTROL UMBILICALS
An artificial cable trench (ACT) includes a body and a trench formed into the body. The trench is configured to hold a cable, umbilical, or similar feature. The ACT may be positioned along a seabed or shoreline to stabilize the cable and thereby prevent movement and eventual damage to the cable. The body of the ACT is shaped to overcome the flow induced loads caused by the relative motion between the cable and the surrounding waves and sea currents as well as providing effective friction/engagement with a contact surface (e.g., a shoreline surface). The ACT may have features that result in self-burying in sand and/or preventing lateral movement.
