Abstract

The characterization of crude being physical, elemental, compositional and bulk parameter analyses is an investigative approach into the properties of crude oil. This study shows the properties of Afiesere crude oil in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria. The parameters investigated are density, specific gravity, API gravity, vapour pressure, kinematic viscosity, moisture content, gum content, cloud point, pour point, flash point, metallic constituents (V, Ni), elemental (N2,O2,S2) and compositional (aliphatic and heavier) hydrocarbons using ASTM/IP procedural methods. The results show density (0.9440 g/cm3), specific gravity (0.9450), API gravity (18.2°), vapour pressure (7 kPa), kinematic viscosity (80.4 cSt), moisture (3175 ppm), gum content (71,000 ppm), cloud point (-2°C), pour point (-10°C), flash point (95°C), Vanadium (0.05 ppm), Nickel (0.39 ppm), N2 (0.11%), O2 (<0.5%), S2 (1.25%), aliphatic hydrocarbons (0.032-2.804%), heavier hydrocarbons (0.210-1.737%). The outcome of these results can be used effectively to predict the transportation, storage and/or refining of the crude oil being analysed.

尼日尔三角洲原油的油性特征

原油的物理、元素、组成和总体参数分析是研究原油性质的一种方法。本研究揭示了尼日利亚尼日尔三角洲地区Afiesere原油的性质。使用ASTM/IP程序方法研究的参数包括密度、比重、API比重、蒸汽压力、运动粘度、水分含量、胶含量、浊点、凝点、闪点、金属成分(V、Ni)、元素(N2、O2、S2)和组成(脂肪族和较重的)碳氢化合物。结果表明:密度(0.9440 g/cm3)、比重(0.9450)、API比重(18.2°)、蒸汽压(7 kPa)、运动粘度(80.4 cSt)、水分(3175 ppm)、胶含量(71000 ppm)、浊点(-2℃)、凝点(-10℃)、闪点(95℃)、钒(0.05 ppm)、镍(0.39 ppm)、N2(0.11%)、O2(<0.5%)、S2(1.25%)、脂肪烃(0.032-2.804%)、重烃(0.210-1.737%)。这些结果的结果可以有效地用于预测被分析原油的运输、储存和/或精炼。
