 A crude oil assay is the chemical evaluation of crude
oil feedstocks by petroleum testing laboratories.
 The results of crude oil assay testing provide extensive detailed hydrocarbon analysis
data for refiners, oil traders and producers.
 Assay data help refineries determine if a crude oil feedstock is compatible for a
particular petroleum refinery or if the crude oil could cause yield, quality, production,
environmental and other problems.

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 Each crude oil has unique molecular and chemical characteristics
 No crude oil types are identical.

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 In a refinery, a typical crude oil stream consists of the following
characteristics:
 Mixture of many naturally occurring hydrocarbons
 Boiling points ranging from -160°C (Methane) to more than 1500°C.
 Heavy fractions that are not mixtures of discretely identifiable components.
 Plus-fraction starting from C7+ to C12+

Specially  Heavy crudes!

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 A proper description of the physical properties of the plus-fractions
is essential for reliable phase behavior calculations and
compositional modelling studies.

 Light Ends are defined:
 pure components
 low boiling points
 C2 to n-C5 (propane/propylene, butanes, etc.)

 They should be replaced with discrete pure components


 This should always yield more accurate results than using hypocomponent to
represent the Light Ends portion.

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 Ignore
 When the assay is prepared with the Light Ends in the sample and the Light
Ends portion is characterized using hypo components (least accurate—not
recommended)
 Also useful if it is understood there is a negligible content of lights in the assay
sample
 Input Composition:
 When the assay is prepared with Light Ends in the sample and a separate Light
Ends assay is available
 Auto Calculate
 When the assay is prepared with the Light Ends in the sample and you want to
use pure components to represent the low boiling portion of the assay

 Cutting generates the hypothetical components and
determines their compositions in the installed oil
 Types:
 Auto-cut

 User Ranges

 User Points

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 Auto Cut
 Aspen HYSYS performs cuts automatically using built-in cutpoint
ranges
Cutpoint Range Boiling Point Width

IBP to 800 F 25 F per cut

800 F to 1200 F 50 F per cut

1200 F to 1650 F 100 F per cut

 HYSYS performs the cutting automatically upon selection

www.ChemicalEngineeringGuy.com
 User Points
 User defines the number of desired cuts for the oil
 Specified cut points are proportioned based on internal weighting scheme

Cutpoint Range Internal Weighting

IBP – 800 F 4 per 100 F

800 F – 1200 F 2 per 100 F

1200 F - FBP 1 per 100 F
