Abstract

Computer-implemented methods of characterizing chemical composition of a sample containing crude oil or a petroleum fraction are presented. The methods can include, in a processor, receiving assay data of the sample, and particularly molecular-level data obtained using advanced analytical techniques, and processing this data in view of a model library of compounds, including reconciling compound compositions, to form a characterization of the chemical composition of the sample.
