Standard Test Method for Density, Relative Density, and API Gravity of Crude Oils by Digital Density Analyzer

Importancia y uso:

5.1 Density is a fundamental physical property that may be used in conjunction with other properties to characterize the quality of crude oils.

5.2 The density or relative density of crude oils is used for the conversion of measured volumes to volumes at the standard temperatures of 15 °C or 60 °F and for the conversion of crude mass measurements into volume units.

5.3 The application of the density result obtained from this test method, for fiscal or custody transfer accounting calculations, may require measurements of the water and sediment contents obtained on similar specimens of the crude oil parcel.
