Sincor heavy crude oil processing station on stream

The Sincor joint venture has opened an oil production processing station in eastern Venezuela that mixes 8�-gravity heavy crude with a lighter 30�-gravity Mesa crude, creating a more marketable 16�-gravity crude known as Zuata 16. The plant can handle 210,000 b/d of extra heavy crude and up to 300,000 b/d of diluted crude.
