Detailed physical qualities: Laboratory assays, in-house or third-party Estimate properties across the boiling range Predict transport and processing characteristics Cargo trends and variability: Cargo measurements and producer data Identify quality trends and seasonal variations Determine quality risk of each grade or pipeline Refining experience: Gathering actual refining performance Assess actual behavior in refining processes Identify reliability challenges (for example, high TAN, blending compatibility, mercury, organic chlorides) 7 7
Availability: Information from producers and transport network Determine cargo sizes and delivery options Identify scheduling constraints Market Data & Economics: Data from markets and in-house pricing models Determine prices for feedstocks and products Set parameters for economic models to determine feedstock value/risk, product commitments News & Intelligence: Information from news providers and intelligence gathered across organization Foresight of upcoming changes in feedstock quality or market conditions 8 8

Crude Oil Knowledge Management Common feedstock database Consistent, up-to-date, accurate assay data across business functions Shared reference data, e.g. units of measure, properties, blending rules Refinery feedstock approval process Feedstock quality and yield constraints for a refinery to be able to store, pump, and/or process a crude cargo Monitoring, alerting and updating systems Capture unexpected crude quality swings or important market information, and update assays to reflect current crude quality Qualitative data Soft processing experience is just as valuable as measurement data 10

Spiral CrudeSuite CrudeSuite is an enterprise toolset for crude oil knowledge management Business functions include: Creating, updating and managing assays Recutting assays to generate input data for planning, scheduling, and process simulation tools Screening and ranking crudes and blends to support trading decisions Sharing expertise and consistent data across business areas Scalable range of solutions: Desktop, web or automated access to crude oil data and information Marketed assay libraries: HPI Assay Library, Shell Assay Library, Chevron Assay Library 13
CrudeSuite Laboratory: Viewing Data Configurable view of central assay database brings together in-house and external information Visualisation and comparison tools allow rapid evaluation of candidate crudes 14 Graph tools allow viewing and comparison of crude yields and properties
CrudeSuite Internet: Crude Blending User-configurable approval criteria indicate suitability of crude Crude assays selected from central assay database Parallel blending calculations allow rapid assessment of hundreds of crude blending scenarios Automated pricing feed allows combined view of blend costs and suitability 15
SimSci Spiral CrudeSuite 5.5 + SimSci PRO/II 9.2.1 CrudeSuite 16 PRO/II
New Option in PRO/II 9.2.1 (Fall 2013) New Option to define an Assay Stream from Spiral CrudeSuite 17
Blend Selection A new window allows user to select Crude Reference and Flow rate from CrudeSuite Multiple crudes can be selected to form a Blend or the blend can be selected in CrudeSuite first and the blend imported into PRO/II 18
CrudeSuite Crude Selection from PRO/II Similar look and feel to CrudeSuite to select the crudes for the assay Pseudo components generated Components from Spiral identified by SPRL prefix 19
