Abstract:
Physical and chemical operational parameters of petroleum from the Mtsarekhevi deposit on the territory of Georgia was studied. This petroleum belongs to the petroleum of heavy type (ρ4 20-0.9505g/cm3), is characterized by the small exit of petrol and light hydrocarbon fractions, by the low content of general sulfur and low freezing point.Hydrocarbon composition of
petroleum fractions was studied by gas-chromatography and mass
spectrometry methods. It was established that in isomeric alkanes the content
of the mono substituted isomers predominates over the disubstituted isomers.
The amount of saturated hydrocarbons - paraffins and cycloalkanes in the
total composition was 93 %, and the ratio of isoparaffins and n-paraffins was
about 1:3.
