End use and cut: light, heavy or full-range

01 / Understand the requirement

you need.

Naphtha is used as petrochemical feedstock or for gasoline blending. Light, heavy and full-range cuts differ in paraffin content, density and boiling range. The right specification depends on how it will be used. Tell us the intended use, the cut you need and any quality limits required by your process.

Before you enquire

Questions about
Naphtha.

Answers to common questions about sourcing Naphtha.

Do I need to specify light or heavy naphtha?

Not necessarily. Tell us whether it is for a steam cracker, reformer or gasoline blending. We can explain which cut is usually used and which quality parameters matter.

Which quality parameters affect sourcing?

Usually paraffin content, density and boiling range. Sulphur and aromatics content also matter for some uses. Share any process limits so we can use them as sourcing requirements.

Can you use a full specification sheet?

Yes. Send the sheet, and we will use it. We will flag any unusually tight limits or combinations of requirements that may be difficult to source.

Does the destination affect sourcing?

Yes. It affects freight, suitable sourcing locations and sometimes documentation. It affects the specification less than it does for road fuels, but we still need it to assess the enquiry.

Does the supply period matter for naphtha?

Yes. Tell us whether you need a single cargo or regular supply and the period you have in mind. Steady feedstock supply and a one-off cargo are sourced and arranged differently.
