Abstract
A downhole fluid sampling tool comprising one or more probes configured to take at least one fluid sample from the wellbore and perform a Saturates, Aromatics, Resins, Asphaltenes (SARA) analysis on the at least one fluid sample. Additionally, the downhole fluid sampling tool comprises an information handling system for developing a first remediation operation based at least in part on the first SARA analysis and performing the first remediation operation on the first fluid sample to form a first remediated fluid sample.
