NACE 21415:2017

The objective of this technical committee report is to provide guidance to refiners on the potential impact of additives used in oil production (including well drilling, completion, and stimulation) and transportation on refinery fixed assets. The report draws on the knowledge and operating experience of the global refining community in processing a wide variety of feedstocks including conventional and nonconventional oil sources. It is intended to aid refinery and corporate staff in evaluating and mitigating the impact of existing, new, and changing feedstock additives on their process units, while not prescribing a crude selection process. This report is maintained by TG 489.
