Which outcome results from decreased crude oil temperature?

💡 Explanation

Increased viscosity results from decreased temperature; therefore, friction increases, and pressure drop increases due to viscous drag. Greater pumping energy is required to maintain the same flow rate, rather than reduced shear; turbulence and cavitation depend separately on velocity.
