Product Overview
Basra Light Crude Oil is one of Iraq's premium crude oil grades, known for its moderate API gravity and relatively high sulfur content. It is a sought-after crude oil for refineries that specialize in processing heavier grades into diesel, gasoline, jet fuel, and petrochemical feedstocks.
Key Characteristics:
Moderate API gravity (~30-31), making it a balanced crude for refining operations
Higher sulfur content (~2.87%), typically requiring desulfurization but yielding valuable middle distillates
Ideal for refining into diesel, gasoline, and jet fuel
Stable and consistent supply via Iraq's major oil terminals
Important Note: Iraq's Crude Oil Sales Process
Unlike many global markets, Iraq operates differently in crude oil sales, particularly through SOMO (State Organization for Marketing of Oil). This means:
* Only qualified buyers and refineries can engage in direct purchases.
* Strict registration, compliance, and financial verification processes are required.
* Transactions involve long-term contracts or structured agreements with SOMO.

Light Cycle Oil (LCO) is a valuable petroleum product derived from the refining process. It falls between heavy fuel oil and diesel in terms of density and viscosity, making it a versatile component for various applications. LCO is primarily used as a blending agent for diesel fuel, enhancing its quality and performance. Additionally, it serves as a feedstock for petrochemical processes, contributing to the production of lubricants and other high-value products. With its relatively low
sulfur content and efficient combustion properties, LCO plays a significant role in meeting energy demands while adhering to environmental regulations in the
petroleum industry.

Light Cycle Oil (LCO) is a diesel boiling range product from Fluid Catalytic Cracking Units (FCCUs). FCCU is responsible for the production of petrol, LPG and Light Cycle Oil (LCO). There are various ways of economically upgrading LCO, which include hydrotreating, high pressure hydrocracking for full conversion of LCO into Naphtha and a more optimized partial conversion hydrocracking process. It can be used in susch industries as Agrochemical, Crude Oil, Petrochemicals, Petroleum Products.
