Reid vapor pressure definition

Reid vapor pressure means the vapor pressure of crude oil or other volatile petroleum products at 100 degrees Fahrenheit as determined by the latest edition of ASTM D6377 (RVPE): Standard Test Method for Determination of Vapor Pressure of Crude Oil.
Reid vapor pressure means the vapor pressure of crude oil or other volatile petroleum products measured at 100 degrees Fahrenheit and at a 4:1 V/L ratio as determined by the latest edition of ASTM D6377: Standard Test Method for Determination of Vapor Pressure of Crude Oil, and reported as the Reid Vapor Pressure Equivalent (RVPE) as described in appendix X1 using equation X1.1 for unpressurized 1-liter sample containers.
Reid vapor pressure means the absolute vapor pressure of volatile crude oil and volatile nonviscous petroleum liquids except liquefied petroleum gases as determined by American Society for Testing and Materials, Part 17, 1973, D-323-72 (reapproved 1977).
