standard by American Petroleum Institute, 08/01/2000
Full Description
A consortium of API member ocmpanies has sponsored a research program consisting of a series of projects on the characterization of crude oils. The goal of this program was to obtain complete sets of assay and thermophysical property data on a few widely varying crude oil refining and refining facilities.
