MTBE: A CARRIER FOR HEAVY OIL TRANSPORTATION AND VISCOSITY MIXING RULE APPLICABILITY J.L. ANHORN A. BADAKHSHAN this article begins on the next page FF JCPT94-04-02 MTBE: A Carrier for Heavy Oil Transportation and Viscosity Mixing Rule Applicability J.L. ANHORN,* A. BADAKHSHAN University of Calgary now with Coles Gilbert Associai:es Abstract The pipeline transportation of bitumens is made difficult by the excessive viscosities of the heavy oil. The current solution to this problem has been the addition Of C4+ paraffinic liquid hydrocarbons. There are a number of drawbacks, however, to the use of this diluent. To overcome these difficulties the alter- nate use of MTBE (mediyl tert-butyl ether), a gasoline additive, as a liquid solvent has en investigated. With the potential for Alberta to become a substantial exporter of both bitumen and MTBE, the pmspect of transporting the two constituents simul- taneously is promising. A liquid visco ity model has been utilized to calculate the component viscosities as a function of temperature, and then use a mixing rule to determine blend viscosity as a function of com- position. It was found that the addition of 25-30% MTBE (mass basis) was sufficient to reduce the viscosity of the Cold Lake bitumen to meet pipeline specifications. The viscosity model was found to be accurate over the entire range of compositions and temperatures examined. A simple distillation was performed on a
