Petroleum naphtha is an intermediate hydrocarbon liquid stream derived from the refining of crude oil [1] [2] [3] with CAS-no 64742-48-9. [4] It is most usually desulfurized and then catalytically reformed, which rearranges or restructures the hydrocarbon molecules in the naphtha as well as breaking some of the molecules into smaller molecules to produce a high-octane component of gasoline (or ...
Naphtha (/ ˈ n æ f θ ə /, recorded as less common or nonstandard [1] in all dictionaries: / ˈ n æ p θ ə /) is a flammable liquid hydrocarbon mixture.Generally, it is a fraction of crude oil, but it can also be produced from natural-gas condensates, petroleum distillates, and the fractional distillation of coal tar and peat.

Despite the recent rally, Kaneva and her team expect Brent prices to average $73 for 2025. Silhouettes of onshore oil and gas well in the field outdoors against blue cloudy sky (Olga Rolenko via ...
U.S. energy giant Chevron expects 1 million barrels of oil equivalent per day from Kazakhstan's Tengiz oil field, which is among the world's biggest. Meanwhile, an Exxon executive downplayed hopes ...
The aniline point (ASTM D611 [13]) is of considerable value in the characterization of petroleum products. The aniline point measure of the ability of the base oil to act as a solvent and is determined from the temperature at which equal volumes of aniline and the base stock are soluble High aniline points (approximately 100°C or greater ...
From January 2008 to December 2012, if you bought shares in companies when Thomas F. O’Neill joined the board, and sold them when he left, you would have a -40.9 percent return on your investment, compared to a -2.8 percent return from the S&P 500.
The naphthas derived from the distillation of crude oils are referred to as "straight-run" naphthas. It is the straight-run heavy naphtha that is usually processed in a catalytic reformer because the light naphtha has molecules with 6 or fewer carbon atoms which, when reformed, tend to crack into butane and lower molecular weight hydrocarbons ...
