Abstract

Abstract
Characterisation of the four crude oil samples has been described in the paper: Croatian crude oil, REB (Russian export blend) crude oil processed at Sisak Oil Refinery, Siberian Light crude oil processed at Rijeka Oil Refinery, and potential REB Odessa crude oil. Atmospheric and vacuum distillations have been performed on the basis of ASTM D 2892 method for distillation of crude oil and its products, as well as on to the ASTM D 5236 method.
A series of data obtained on physical and chemical properties, true boiling point distillation, as well as utilisation and characteristics of fractions, provide enough information to be used in evaluation of crude oils (i.e. preparation of crude oil assay) and selection of process diagrams.

Keywords

crude oil constituents to processing properties relation; raw materials choice and pretreatment viewpoint; process capability of feedstock; testing by distillation
