Simulated Distillation (SimDis)

At Rio Petróleo, we apply Simulated Distillation (SimDis) to generate accurate distillation curves for crude oils and intermediate cuts using high‑temperature chromatography and specialized software. With only a small sample volume, SimDis delivers high‑quality data to support engineering and operations decisions.

What you can expect with SimDis:

  • High accuracy and reproducibility
  • Minimal sample requirement
  • Improved laboratory safety
  • Direct correlation with processing units

How we use SimDis to create value:

  • Feed characterization
  • Refining planning
  • Blend optimization
