The standard formulated by PLOTT Company in Singapore refers to the heavy oil with kinematic viscosity less than 180cst at 50℃. 180 heavy oil is a product obtained by mixing some light fractions with residual oil in countries such as the Middle East.

Application and performance of 180# heavy oil;

At present, a large number of local refineries in China use imported 180 heavy oil as refinery raw materials. 180 heavy oil can also be used as boiler fuel and kiln fuel, and can also be used as blending components of other fuels. 180 the density of heavy oil is less than 1, which can be divided into high sulfur and low sulfur 180. It is a good fuel with high calorific value and stable combustion.

Heavy oil is the residual heavy oil after extracting gasoline and diesel oil from crude oil, which is characterized by large molecular weight and high viscosity. The specific gravity of heavy oil is generally 0.82 ~ 0.95, and the calorific value is10000 ~11000 kcal/kg. Its composition is mainly hydrocarbons, in addition, it also contains some sulfur and trace inorganic compounds.
