Abstract

Un proceso y un sistema para reducir la viscosidad de los petróleos crudos pesados y extra pesados, y más particularmente a un proceso para reducir la viscosidad de los petróleos crudos pesados y extra pesados por medio de desasfaltado total o parcial del petróleo con un agente de precipitación a fin de obtener un petróleo crudo mejorado en cuanto a la viscosidad más baja que se puede bombear sin el uso de diluyentes. La mejora también incluye una reducción de los metales y azufre asociados con la extracción de asfaltenos. El proceso consiste en un equipo relativamente simple tal como mezcladores estáticos y tanques agitadores y la temperatura de funcionamiento es baja y la presión es moderada.A process and system for reducing the viscosity of heavy and extra heavy crude oils, and more particularly a process for reducing the viscosity of heavy and extra heavy crude oils by means of total or partial deasphalting of the Oil with a precipitating agent in order to obtain an improved crude oil in terms of the lowest viscosity that can be pumped without the use of diluents. The improvement also includes a reduction in metals and sulfur associated with the extraction of asphaltenes. The process consists of a relatively simple equipment such as static mixers and stirring tanks and the operating temperature is low and the pressure is moderate.
