SOUR CRUDE OIL Chemical compatibility with O-rings, rubbers, & plastics
Sour Crude Oil is a type of crude oil that contains a high concentration of sulfur compounds, making it more challenging to refine and process compared to sweet crude oil. Sour crude oil is typically found in certain regions and requires additional treatment to remove the sulfur and other impurities. It is used in various industrial and chemical applications primarily as a raw material for the production of fuels, lubricants, and petrochemicals. Proper handling and storage of sour crude oil are essential to prevent corrosion, environmental contamination, and health hazards associated with its sulfur content. Proper safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are essential when working with sour crude oil. Its value as a source of hydrocarbons makes sour crude oil a critical resource in the energy and chemical industries, although its processing requires careful control to prevent environmental and health impacts.
