A system and a method for determining one or more distillation temperatures for one or more given distillation weight percentages of a crude oil sample are provided, which can be used to produce a simulated distillation curve. Simulated distillation temperatures of crude oil samples are assigned as a function of density and data derived from UV/Visible spectroscopy measurement of the crude oil samples.

Characterization of crude oil by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy

A system and a method for characterizing an aromaticity value of a crude oil sample from the weight and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy of the sample id provided. The system and method includes calculating and assigning a crude oil ultraviolet visible index and using the assigned index to calculate and assign an aromaticity value of the sample, and optionally to calculate and assign an API gravity.

Characterization of an aromaticity value of crude oil by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy

A system and a method for calculating and assigning an indicative value, such as cetane number, pour point, cloud point and aniline point, of a fraction of an oil sample based on an index calculated and assigned from ultraviolet visible spectroscopy data of the oil sample.

A system and a method for characterizing a crude oil sample from the weight and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy of the sample, including calculating and assigning a crude oil ultraviolet visible index and using the assigned index to calculate and assign an API gravity and/or to calculate and assign an aromaticity value of the sample.

Characterization of an API gravity value of crude oil by ultraviolet visible spectroscopy

A system and a method for characterizing a crude oil sample from the weight and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy of the sample, including calculating a crude oil ultraviolet visible index and using the index to calculate the API gravity and the aromaticity of the sample.

A system and a method for calculating the cetane number, pour point, cloud point and aniline point of a gas oil fraction of crude oil from the density and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy of a sample of the crude oil.
