What Is Crude Oil?: 

What Is Crude Oil? An oily liquid that occurs naturally in the ground A mixture of hydrocarbon compounds and other substances Used to create fuels, lubricating oils, asphalt, petrochemicals and other products Crude oils vary in colour

History of Crude Oil: 

History of Crude Oil Crude oil has been known for several thousands of years The Arabs and Persians distilled it to form a thin oil to burn in lamps During the early 1800s, scientists began to discover that it contained a number of useful substances The first underground oil was discovered in 1841 In the early 1900s, modern methods of finding oil were devised

Hydrocarbon Structures of Petroleum: 

Hydrocarbon Structures of Petroleum Petroleum consists of three main hydrocarbon groups: Paraffins Naphthenes Aromatics

The Refining Process: 

The Refining Process Distillation (fractionation) Atmospheric distillation High vacuum distillation Cracking Reforming Alkylation Polymerisation Isomerisation Fractionation Solvent extraction Dehydration Desalting Sulphur removal Hydrotreating

The Source of Crude Oil: 

The Source of Crude Oil Found in large sedimentary basins Extracted from the ground, on land or under the oceans Microscopic section of an oil-bearing rock

Waste and Its Treatment: 

Waste and Its Treatment Waste Treatment Outcome Vacuum residue Bitumen plant Bitumen Waste water The oil is Contaminated API separators/ reused in the With oil slop tanks refining process

Monitoring the Quality of Crude Oil: 

Monitoring the Quality of Crude Oil Preliminary assay - inspection data Full assay - based on true boiling point distillation

Environmental Controls : 

Environmental Controls Cause Control Escape of Floating roofs, Hydrocarbon pumps and valves Vapors checked routinely Smoke Furnace control systems Noise Equipment enclosed or insulated, exhaust silencers

Occupational Health and Safety: 

Occupational Health and Safety Personal Safety Sign in Attend safety briefing Personal Protection Overalls or trousers and long-sleeved shirt Safety helmet Steel toed safety footwear Safety glasses with side shields Ear protection
