  2. Abstract:
  3. This article reviews the oil-soluble polymeric drag-reducing agents (DRAs) with an outlook to their large-scale application in petroleum industry. A general discussion on mechanism of the DR phenomenon and mechanical degradation of the drag reducers in turbulent flow is offered with an emphasis on the molecular parameters. Furthermore, low charge density associating polymers, as a new class of oil-soluble flow improvers, are described
