THE EFFECT ADDITION OF LSWR INTO FUEL OILS AGAINST ALTERATION ITS PHYSICALS AND CHEMICALS PROPERTIES

Djainuddin Semar, Nur Ahadiat

Abstract


To fulfill yearly increase National demand for fuel oils (FO), therefor this paper
conducted to researched the posibility added low sulfur wax residue (LSWR) into National
fuel oil comersial to some percentage volume againts its characteristic changes.
Base on its pour point, the fuel oils modification formula, named FO-90 that has pour
point 90oF, this formula content 6% volume LSWR.
The laboratory test result, shown that nearly all characteristic fuel oils modification is
conform with current domestic fuel oils specification 2, issued by Directorate General
Oils and Gas on behalf of Indonesian goverment in their SK No. 03/P/DM/MIGAS/1986
dated April 14, 1986.
This paper proposes fuel oils specification, as input for government policy in reformulation
of Indonesian fuel oils specification which confirm with international fuel oil specification.


Keywords
