Disclosed is a process for reducing the deposition of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale in an oil well pipe by providing a system of pipes that convey any flowable medium, such as oil and gas. More particularly the system of pipes is provided with different coatings or linings for the interior and exterior surfaces of such pipes, depending on the environment in which the pipes are used. The pipes may be coated with different materials, which may be of different thicknesses, with various configurations of coatings or linings. Such coating may be on the interior and/or exterior of the pipes.

1. Process of reducing the deposition of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale in an oil well pipe used to convey oil from underground deposits by providing a system of pipes connected end to end for conveying oil comprising a first pipe and a second pipe, the second pipe having a lining adhered to the interior surface thereof, the lining comprising a primer layer adhered to the interior surface of the pipe and an overcoat or a preformed film comprising a fluoropolymer adhered to the primer layer, where the overcoat has an exterior anti-stick surface consisting essentially of baked perfluoropolymer, the anti-stick surface reducing the deposition in the oil well pipe of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, and or inorganic scale as compared to the interior surface of the oil well pipe without the lining being present, so as to avoid pluggage of said system of pipes, wherein the first pipe is unlined or lined with a lining of a different material than the lining of the second pipe. 2. Process of reducing the deposition of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale in an oil well pipe used to convey oil from underground deposits by providing a system of pipes connected end to end for conveying oil comprising a first pipe and a second pipe, the second pipe having a lining adhered to the interior surface thereof, the lining consisting essentially of a continuously adherent perfluoropolymer, where the lining of said second pipe has an exterior anti-stick surface, the anti-stick surface reducing the deposition in the oil well pipe of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale as compared to the interior surface of the oil well pipe without the lining being present, so as to avoid pluggage of said system of pipes, wherein the first pipe is unlined or lined with a lining of a different material than the lining of the second pipe. 3. Process of reducing the deposition of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale in an oil well pipe used to convey oil from underground deposits by providing a system of pipes connected end to end for conveying oil comprising a first pipe and a second pipe, the second pipe having a lining adhered to the interior surface thereof, wherein the lining of the second pipe comprises a barrier layer including a plurality of particles which form a mechanical barrier against permeation of water, gas and solvents to the pipe, where the lining of the second pipe has an exterior anti-stick surface, the anti-stick surface reducing the deposition in the oil well pipe of asphaltenes, paraffin wax, or inorganic scale as compared to the interior surface of the oil pipe without the lining being present, so as to avoid pluggage of the system of pipes, wherein the first pipe is unlined or lined with a lining of a different material than the lining of the second pipe. 4. The process of claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein the different material of the first pipe comprises fluorinated ethylene propylene. 5. The process of claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein the different material of the first pipe comprises epoxy. 6. The process of claims 1, wherein the primer layer comprises a perfluoropolymer. 7. The process of claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein the thickness of the lining in sections of the second pipe at a depth of 1500 feet or greater below the surface is 5 mils. 8. The process of claim 1, 2 or 3, wherein the thickness of the lining in the section of the second pipe at a depth of 1500 feet or less is 40-50 mils.
