Petrochemical Analysis - Overview
 
Oil and oil related samples are some of the most complicated mixtures to analyse.

The identification of trace components within these complex matrices requires a good understanding of the appropriate chromatographic and mass spectrometric techniques.

The widely varying component concentration in these oil and petrochemical samples adds
further complications when trying to perform quantification studies.

We use a combination of approaches including high-resolution GC-MS with various spectral experiment types to identify and quantify analytes or categories of analytes within intractable matrices. We have the capability of sampling solids, liquids and gases to ensure that we can provide the full range of services that you require.

We have provided both qualitative and quantitative data to clients for many years within the petrochemical and associated industries and have built an enviable reputation for problem solving and troubleshooting.

Whether you need a simple additive identification or a complex analysis involving detailed compositional or dopant analysis - we can provide over 100 years of combined experience in petrochemical and related analyses.
