Hydrocracking Technology Process
Conoco Phillips is a pioneer in the field of production of a full assortment of lubricants manufactured from hydrocracked basic oils
. Hydrocracking is a technology, which transforms the molecules of crude oil into the required components of basic lubricants of unsurpassed quality. At the same time crude oil is cleansed of all polluting substances in order to produce basic oil that is free of impurities. Basic oil is then clean and clear as water.
1 - Initial
oil products, distilled in a special vacuum distillation columns, are divided into distillates and vacuum gas-oils.
2 - Molecules of wax-oils vacuum gas-oils get into the hydrocracking plant for hydrogenation.
3 - At ultrahigh pressures and temperatures (300kPa, 1000F) the molecules of oil become chemically active.
4 - Hydrogen is added to these molecules to completely eliminate impurities. As a result of molecules regrouping we receive a basic component that is needed to produce finished lubricants.
5 - The transformed component has lighter in color, because it is cleaner.
6 - Unwanted paraffin hydrocarbons rearrange on a molecular level so that basic oil is not jelatinizated and is easily pumped at extremely low temperatures.
7 - Hydrogen is used again to remove fragrant hydrocarbons and other light impurities. It also helps to stabilize the molecular structure of the newly acquired basic component to insure a higher steadiness toward oxidation and a longer life time for the lubricant.
A good basic component is indispensable for the characteristics of any lubricants, because it is one of the main components of oil, while all the rest are just additives.
Special features of ConocoPhillips oils
Conoco Phillips oils are manufactured from basic components of the highest quality, offering you extra advantages in several aspects. Such advantages include:
1 - Decreased oil consumption due to a better viscosity control and decreased volatility.
2 - Decreased fuel consumption due to the oils steadiness toward densifying which results in smaller hydrodynamic friction during the oil life time.
3 - Smoother start and gear-shift in cold weather as a result of the oils smaller viscosity, which is 50% less than with other
oils.
4 - Longer life time for the oil as a result of steadiness toward oxidation and improved equipment protection.
5 - Better equipment protection with basic
oil that is clean and steady toward oxidation and thermal destruction.
6 - Great protection from tear and wear, which leads to a longer life time of main parts, such as bush sleeves, cylinder hoops, crankshafts, gear valves, bearings and tooth gears.
7 - Unique long-lasting scale dispersion provides engine smoothness and decrease of hard depositions.
8 - Great steadiness toward the formation of sludge and laquer-like scale.
9 - Longer intervals between oil changes help save time and money.
On top of that, all ConocoPhillips production is secured with a 100% warranty of technical characteristics together with excellent service.
