What is the basis for making adjustments when the density of crude oil becomes lighter or heavier, in terms of the draw from the atmospheric side stream?
The side-line extraction should be based on temperature; changes in weight are simply due to different amounts of material being extracted through the side line
Generally, the normal parietal reflow and reduced parietal reflow are used as references
Product quality should still be the main criterion, with temperature and pressure changes serving as references
Is it normal for the temperature of my side line extract to remain constant?
Ensure material balance based on product quality
