  • the gasoil streams produced from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of GTL gasoil and Bonga or Forcados crude oil have improved density and cetane number characteristics compared with those of the Automotive Gasoil (AGO) produced from the respective pure crude oil.
  • the gasoil streams produced from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of GTL gasoil and crude oil have a lower density and a higher cetane number than the AGO produced from the respective pure Bonga or Forcados crude oil.
  • gasoil streams produced from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of GTL gasoil and Bonga/Forcados crude oil have an increased density compared with the pure GTL gasoil .
  • gasoil streams produced from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of the GTL gasoil and Bonga or Forcados crude oil have improved cold flow properties compared with those of the Automotive Gasoil (AGO) produced from the respective pure crude oil.
  • the gasoil streams from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of the GTL gasoil and Bonga or Forcados crude oil have lower cloud points and CFPPs than the AGO produced from the respective pure Bonga or Forcados crude oil.
  • gasoil streams produced from the 10/90 and 30/70 blends of GTL gasoil and Bonga/Forcados crude oil advantageously have decreased amounts of sulphur compared to the AGO produced from the respective pure Bonga or Forcados crude oil.

Abstract

La présente invention concerne un procédé de préparation d'un flux de gazole comprenant les étapes consistant à : (i) mélanger un gazole dérivé de Fischer-Tropsch avec une huile brute de pétrole naphténique à haute densité pour produire une huile brute de pétrole naphténique à haute densité modifiée, le gazole dérivé de Fischer-Tropsch ayant une densité de 0,8 g/cm 3 ou moins ; (ii) soumettre l'huile brute de pétrole naphténique à haute densité modifiée, produite à l'étape (i) à la distillation atmosphérique pour produire une fraction de gazole ayant une densité de 0,82 g/cm 3 ou plus et un indice de cétane de 46 ou plus. La présente invention décrit une manière d'améliorer les propriétés de flux de gazole issus de bruts principalement naphténiques en mélangeant directement du gazole dérivé de Fischer-Tropsch dans ces bruts en tout point de la chaîne avant l'étape de distillation atmosphérique.
