Hydrate formation is a common challenge in the oil and gas industry when natural gas is transported under cold conditions in the presence of water. Coatings are one of the solutions that have shown to be a promising approach to address this challenge. However, this strategy suffers from the intrinsic existence of a solid-liquid interface causing a high rate of hydrate nucleation and high hydrate adhesion strength. This proof-of-concept study highlights the performance of a magnetic slippery surface to prevent hydrate adhesion at atmospheric pressure using tetrahydrofuran hydrates. The coating consisted of a hydrocarbon-based magnetic fluid, which was applied to a metal surface to create an interface that lowered the hydrate adhesion strength on the surface. The performance of these new surfaces under static and dynamic (under fluid flow) conditions shows that the magnetic coating gel can be a potential inhibitor for hydrate adhesion as it reduced the torque value after the formation of hydrates.
