Design Basis With Yield Pattern: Serial No. Product Approximate Yield (WT%)
The Bashundhara Bitumen/Asphalt Production Plant Unit-1 was designed to process the Venezuelan Merey Crude, but is flexible to process other similar heavy crudes. The light naphtha cut yield ranges from 2.52-4.53% depending on the crude. The atmospheric gas oil yield is expected to be 8.33-13.6% which will be added to the fuel oil pool. Bitumen yield varies between 55.68-65.43% across different feedstocks, with the design crude yielding 56.37% bitumen.

Design Basis with Yield Pattern
Bashundhara Bitumen/Asphalt Production Plant Unit-1 (Atmospheric Distillation Unit and
Vacuum Distillation Unit), a project under Bashundhara Oil and Gas Company Ltd., was designed considering the Venezuelan Merey Crude as the design basis with flexibility to operate with other similar heavy Bituminous crudes. The light ends or Naphtha cut yield for this crude is 3.74% (upto 150 oC). But it may vary from 2.52% (Canadian Heavy Blend) to 4.53% (Colombian Crude). The Atmospheric Gas Oil/Middle Distillate yield will be approximately 8.33% to 13.6% which will be disposed of in the Fuel Oil pool. The furnace oil/FO cut yield varies from 24.17% to 28.66% with 26.29% yield in the design crude. Merey crude (Design Basis) has a Bitumen yield of 56.37% with a yield variation from 55.68% to 65.43% depending on different feedstock flexibility. The yield pattern is given in a tabular format below.
