Crude oil assays
Equinor trades in crude oils, petroleum products, methanol, natural gas, power and emission allowances all over the world.
We rank as the world's third largest net seller of crude oil with more than two million barrels of crude and condensate (light oil) traded every day.
The crude oils that Equinor sells are mostly high-quality grades of medium to high API, with a low sulphur content. Here, we provide details of the crude and condensate qualities that we sell.
