| Description |
Heavy crudes reserves are increasing day by day whereas petroleum industry and
refiners arefacing problems to drill, treat and process heavy crudes forproducing products
that are environmentally acceptable and to provide a new source of feed for secondary
conversion processes and upgra~ing. The availability of heavy crude in India isinsignificant
and the currently available heavy crudes in the western and eastern regions are
blended with other light and medium gravity crudes before processing. Jodhpur crude
found in the Bikanar- Nagaur basin of Rajasthan is one of the heaviest, most viscous crude
with high salt content, acid value, low wax, highest sulphur, asphaltenes, conradson
carbon residue etc ever found in any Indian crudes before. The present article describes
crude assay data and problems anticipated in transportation and processing of the crude
oil.
