RE: Low API oil quality is already known8 Nov 2022 10:19
API was recorded at 34....... but condensate- the proof is in the pudding:Condensate is typically valued lower than crude oil because of its high light ends content, which yields a lot of lower value LPGs and light naphtha and makes it difficult to process in high volumes in a refinery. However, there are some condensates containing up to 40% of jet fuel and diesel that are priced higher than crude oil, as they contain very little residue material.....
hopefully its the latter!
