Our crude oil assay evaluation helps you market your oil more effectively, as well as making it easier to identify potential value chain partners.
The Benefits of Crude Oil Assay Testing
As industry leaders in the field of oil testing, we understand that getting the right crude oil to the right refinery is essential to prevent problems of yield, quality and production. Crude oil analysis from SGS helps ensure that your crude oil is compatible with the target refinery process. Analysis will also confirm that the end product can be delivered on time, at the quality expected and without any interruption to supply.
Our flexible assay solutions allow you to demonstrate your commitment to supplying crude oil data that meets the exacting standards required for processing. Having a complete characterization of your crude oil not only facilitates the job of the refinery team, but also puts business planners in the best possible position to maximize profits.
