Correlations of some Saudi Arabian crude cuts physical properties

الملخص EN

The physical properties, such as molecular weight, specific gravity and cumulative volume of both light Arabian and heavy Arabian crude oil cuts, can be correlated with their boiling points if the incremental volumes (TBP distillation) are known.

The data obtained experimentally were fitted by using multiple regression analysis technique to predict the various cuts properties.

In general, the obtained correlations predicted the various 'properties within acceptable accuracy limits.

The correlations predictions also agreed well with other relevant data reported in the literature.
