Barrels of Isthmus crude oil per metric ton
In the oil industry, quantities of crude oil are often measured in metric tons. Isthmus 7.34 bbl per MT.
Isthmus Sulfur: 1.3%
Sulfur is considered an undesirable contaminant because, when burned, it generates sulfur oxides.
As a general rule, a crude oil grade with high sulfur content will have a lower value. This type of crude is often referred to as a sour crude.
