Is crude oil hot?

The temperature of crude oil in the ground will depend on the geographic location in which it is location as well as the surrounding conditions and the physical location (i.e. depth). After that crude oil is kept at a temperature which will allow for optimum processing and transport. Often no heat needs to be added until it arrives at the refinery.


What temperature does crude oil evaporate?

Since crude oil contains a variety of hydrocarbon components of different molecular weights, there is no single evaporation temperature. As crude oil is heated the lower molecular weight components boil off first. At temperatures above 650°F the crude oil will begin the process of "cracking" in which the larger components thermally degrade into smaller components. If crude oil is heated in this manner in the absence of oxygen, a final solid product called petroleum coke will be left behind, which consists of carbon, as well as the other impurities in the crude oil that were not removed such as sulfur, vanadium, etc.
