Diluent definition

Diluent means liquid light hydrocarbons with an API gravity at sixty (60) degrees Fahrenheit of forty-five (45) degrees or higher which are naturally occurring petroleum or atmospherically stable products of refining and fractionation, gas well condensates or gas plant condensates (natural gas liquids), or any material acceptable for delivery to BP Pipelines (North America) Inc. pipeline at Black Oak Junction in Gary, Indiana.
Diluent means liquid light hydrocarbons which are naturally occurring petroleum or atmospherically stable products of refining and fractionation, gas well condensates or gas plant condensates (natural gas liquids), or any material acceptable for delivery to Enbridge Pipeline’s Southern Lights Pipeline in Manhattan, Illinois.
Diluent means a lower density fluid that is blended with heavy oil or bitumen in order to reduce viscosity and density for pipeline transportation (condensate is a commonly used diluent for pipeline transportation of heavy oil or bitumen);

Examples of Diluent in a sentence

  • If in an initial assay, a specimen is found to contain more than the highest standard, the specimens can be diluted with Sample Diluent and reassayed as described in Assay Procedure.For the calculation of the concentrations this dilution factor has to be taken into account.

  • Note: The Sample Diluent will change color when combined with serum.

  • Note: Additional Sample Diluent for sample dilution is available upon request.

  • For example: add 5 ul of serum sample to 245 ul of 1X Sample Diluent.

  • If in an initial assay, a specimen is found to contain more than the highest standard, the specimens can be diluted withSample Diluent and reassayed as described in Assay Procedure.For the calculation of the concentrations this dilution factor has to be taken into account.
