Definition: Naphthenic / Paraffinic Oil
Cp below 50% Naphthenic oilCp 50 – 60% Intermediate oilCp 60%< Paraffinic oil
Cp = Paraffinic Carbon Type
Cn = Naphthenic Carbon TypeCn Above 40% Naphthenic oil

Naphthenic or Paraffinic?
• Low Viscosity Index
• High Solubility
• Low Pour Point Cooling Properties
Long Life
Specific characteristics of Naphthenic crude oils, makes it more suitable for Transformer Oil than paraffinic type:

Naphthenic or Paraffinic?
High Solubility Low Solubility
The Solubility of the oil is more important for a Transformer, since oil change / regeneration is not frequent as for a Car

Distillation
Fractionation allows a refiner to separate crude into different
temperature range blocks each with different molecular weight, viscosity, chemistry and sulfur levels. These serve as Feed
Stocks (FS) for other processes.

For Sulfur to be Corrosive, it needs to be Reactive
As such, its easy to remove in the refining process!
