Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a gas oil composition, in particular to a gas oil composition which can be used in a very low temperature environments.
  • a gas oil composition is produced by blending one or more types of blendstocks produced by subjecting a straight gas oil or straight kerosene, produced through an atmospheric distillation unit of crude oil to hydrorefining or hydrodesulfurization.
  • a straight gas oil or straight kerosene produced through an atmospheric distillation unit of crude oil to hydrorefining or hydrodesulfurization.
  • the blend ratio of the foregoing kerosene blendstock and gas oil blendstock is controlled in order to ensure low temperature fluidity during a winter season.
  • the blendstocks are blended with additives such as cetane number improvers, detergents, and cold flow improvers.
  • Fischer Tropsch synthetic oil obtained by Fischer Tropsch synthesis using carbon monoxide and hydrogen as feedstocks, as one of alternative fuels for a petroleum-based fuel is considered.
  • gas oil for diesel fuel is produced from FT synthetic oil, gas oil free of sulfur content can be obtained.
  • the FT synthetic gas oil is preferable in terms of reducing environmental impact.
  • the above-described FT synthetic oil has a relatively high content of straight-chain saturated hydrocarbon (normal paraffin) compounds. It has been pointed out that in particular when heavy normal paraffin compounds are contained, there is the possibility that they would deposit in the form of wax. Further, the FT synthetic blendstock is a hydrocarbon mixture containing predominantly the aforesaid normal paraffin and saturated hydrocarbons having a side chain (isoparaffin) and thus generally has poor oil solubility. Accordingly, there is a case that additives to be dissolved in fuel oils such as gas oil, highly relying on their oil soluble groups (straight-chain alkyl group or the like) would be hardly dissolved. With this being the situation, there has been a problem in that gas oil derived from FT synthetic oil cannot be used in a low temperature environment.

  • the kinetic viscosity at 30° C. is required to be high.
  • the pour point is required to be low.

Therefore, it is desirable to develop a technique making it possible to improve the fluidity without reducing the kinetic viscosity even in a severe low temperature environment.
