Impacts of refining Canadian partially upgraded bitumen: Fluid catalytic cracking
Abstract In this study, we examine the fluid catalytic cracking (FCC) performance of vacuum gas oil (VGO) from partially upgraded bitumen (PUB), a novel refinery feedstock from Canadian bitumen. FCC experiments were conducted in a lab‐scale FCC unit with VGOs from two different PUBs prepared using thermal cracking and solvent deasphalting, along with ...

Compositional Analysis of Bitumen and Bitumen-Derived Products [PDF]
Th e America n Society for Testing Materials (ASTM ) procedures D2887 and D5307 are used for boiling range characterization of petroleum fractions up to 538°C (1000°F). Th e bitumens fro m the Uint a Basin (Utah ) contain approximatel y 60.0 wt % material boiling above 538°C (1000°F); hence, the AST M techniques leave major portions of the bitumens ...

Hydrogen donor‐assisted visbreaking of Canadian oil sands bitumen
Abstract High‐viscosity Canadian oil sands bitumen requires processing for efficient transportation and refining. Partial upgrading technologies, primarily based on thermal processing, can effectively reduce, or even eliminate, the use of costly diluent, increase bitumen quality and market value, potentially decrease greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, and

World's fastest 10 000‐m breakthrough: The XY‐22 well redefines deep‐earth access in the Tarim Basin
The Tarim Basin in northwestern China hosts one of the world's deepest petroleum systems, exemplified by the XY‐22 ultra‐deep well (bottom depth: 11 116 m; ~220°C, ~145 MPa). This study integrates tectonic mapping, geological cross‐sections, ultraviolet fluorescence microscopy, and optical photothermal infrared (OPTIR) spectroscopy to characterize ...
