Abstract:

As the increase of the remaining reserves of the heavier/sourer crude oil and the requirement of the clean energy, it is significant to sufficiently characterize the molecular composition of the petroleum for the selection of the refining processes and the realization of the economic value of the crude oil. Petroleomics, which is based on the high-resolution mass spectrometry platform, is a powerful tool to achieve this goal. In this paper, the analytical technology applied in petroleomics and its most recent development are reviewed, and the perspective of petroleomics is also discussed.

Key words: mass spectrometry, molecular composition, petroleomics, petroleum
