Field tests of anti-turbulence additive agents are made on of oil pipeline Ust-Tegussky CPS – UUN Kalchinskoye field. Results of these tests are given. It is shown that additive agent injection leads to relative pressure reduction in oil pipeline and flowrate increase. The dependence of maximal flow capacity on injected volume of additive agent is determined.
