SOLVING COMPLEX TECHNICAL AND TECHNOLOGICAL PROBLEMS

Crude oil and its processing

  • analysis of process parameters and refinery streams in correlation with formation of deposits (also by means of neural network).
  • crude oil and natural-gas condensate data sheets
  • crude oils and refinery streams instability in logistic and refinery processes

Salt caverns

  • testing petroleum and fuel resistance to storage in salt caverns.

Chemical fingerprinting in industry and environment

  • finding causes of failures (e.g. sources of deposits), identification of deposits and
    contaminations, recommendation of corrective actions for industrial installations, pipelines,
    storage tanks and heat exchangers,
  • identification and determination of pollutants in gases or liquids,
  • identification of types and sources of environmental contamination;

CHEMICAL ANALYTICS IN PETROLEUM AND PETROCHEMICAL INDUSTRY

  • identification of requirements of each customer in terms of optimum analytical techniques,
  • selection of the on-line type analyzer,
  • development or modification of test methods according to customer requirements,
  • implementation of test methods on customer's apparatus
  • check-up of the chemical composition of petroleum products, biocomponents, biofuels, and alternative fuels and the evaluation of their quality;
  • full analysis of Jet-A1 and aviation gasoline,
  • the identification of substances derived from the degradation of petroleum products;
  • services: monitoring the quality of liquid fuels and biofuels, monitoring LPG quality, monitoring the consumption rate of used engine oils in vehicles;
  • expert services and appraisals in respect of the certification of engine fuel quality, the analysis of petroleum products, and issues connected with the use of petroleum and petroleum-derived products;

CORROSION IN REFINERY PROCESSES

  • identification and determination of responsible for corrosion contaminations in refinery streams.

OTHER 

  • testing the quality of liquid fuels: gasoline, diesel, liquefied gases (LPG), biofuels (including fatty acid methyl esters FAME), co-generation products and other refinery products, a three accreditated laboratories (acc. to PCA AB No. 009)
  • quality tests for the classification of raw materials and petroleum products in accordance with the Combined Nomenclature (CN).
  • expert services concerning the detection of fuel adulteration methods and the detection systems used;
  • expert services in respect of the correct application of sampling methods for petroleum products, liquid fuels, LPG, biocomponents and biofuels;
  • sampling services and quality monitoring for petroleum products, liquid fuels, LPG, biocomponents and biofuels;
