Applications of methylated naphthalenes: resolving mixtures of crude oils

Applications of methylated naphthalenes: resolving mixtures of crude oils

Publication Name: The Sedimentary Basins of WA
Authors: B.G.K. van Aarssen, T.P. Bastow, R. Alexander & R.I. Kagi
Reference Type: Book Section
Date Published: December 2002

 

Abstract:

The relative abundances of methylated naphthalenes present in crude oils provide an excellent tool for resolving crude oils that result from in-reservoir mixing of two or more charges. This is especially significant when the mixture consists of two n...
