Many refiners are processing larger volumes of attractively priced unconventional crudes produced from fracking operations. Contain polymers and other additives that upstream processors are often used to enhance oil recovery or address hydraulic limitations in their operations. These additives can disrupt refining unit operations such as Crude Desalters or restrict the ability of the refiner to meet key product specifications such as JFTOT or NACE Spindle Corrosion test.
