Abstract
► We investigate the effect of asphaltene structure on wettability alteration of heterogeneous surface. ► The effect of asphaltene structure is more pronounced for precipitation at higher pressure. ► Asphaltne particle with larger poly-aromatic rings tend to be detached easier at higher pressure than those with poly-aromatic rings.
