API 27,5 - SULPHUR 2,92
Lower API crude requires treatment in high temperature and longer retention time to meet proper oil production specification Note - lower API (light crude) is free flowing while higher API (heavy crude) does not flow easily.
light crude oil has less specific gravity,less viscosity while heavy crude oil has more specific gravity & viscosity.
Nigeria has significant crude oil reserves, being one of the top oil-producing countries in Africa.
Crude oil densities vary from Saudi Arabian fields, so a single specific gravity is not possible. However, for purposes of benchmarking crude, the Dubai crude is 31 degrees API (0.871).

boiling point of crude oil is depending on the main component in the crude oil itself, heavy crude for example has a higher boiling point from light crude.
SLCO is an acronym for Saudi Light Crude Oil.

In 1977, the average price for a barrel of crude oil was $14.40 (about $60.00 in today's dollars).
