✦ Synopsis

fuels (transport, refining, quality, storage) reactivity correlations. Chemical structures included in the model are linear, branched and cyclic hydrocarbons, hydro-and alkyl-aromatics, PAHs, and three heteroatomic compounds. Reactions include cracking and alkylation chains and inhibiting and accelerating reactions from the various reactants. This model has been applied to several mixtures with various proportions of reaction inhibitors and accelerators, and to a composition representing a light mature oil. From the results obtained, it was concluded that mature oils will be stable up to 240-260°C depending on their composition, and that the thermal cracking of oil to gas is not possible under reasonable basin conditions. The kinetics of petroleum cracking are thus much slower than generally recognized.
