Abstract

A technique for treating heavy hydrocarbon oil in the oil production process or oil refining process. A method and apparatus for adding and mixing a liquid phase of hydrocarbon oil to a hydrocarbon oil feedstock containing heavy hydrocarbon oil in an oil production process or oil refining process including a hydrocarbon oil dehydration process, thereby processing the heavy hydrocarbon oil to be lighter and thus increasing the throughput of the heavy hydrocarbon oil.
