1.1 SCOPE

Each crude was distilled into narrow boiling fractions and detailed characterization was performed on the whole crude, narrow boiling fractions, appropriate composites, and residues. The scope of NIPER's involvement in the program was to produce detailed assay and thermophysical property data. Although the rationale for obtaining the data was to evaluate various correlations used for design purposes, such evaluation was beyond the scope of NIPER's involvement. Hence, this final comprehensive report is in large part a collection of data without attempts to develop or evaluate correlations. Such development or evaluation of correlations falls within the purview of the project sponsors.
