Where the regulation applies

The regulation concerns crude oil prepared for transportation or use. It does not replace requirements for refined petroleum products, which are classified separately by composition and purpose.

What the regulation covers

Checks address water, chloride salts, sulphur and other regulated crude-oil parameters. Batch documentation and analysis results must support quality identification and supply traceability.

Examples of products and facilities

  • dehydrated prepared crude oil
  • desalted prepared crude oil
  • stabilised crude oil
  • crude oil prepared for refining
  • crude oil prepared for pipeline transport

These examples are indicative. Applicability depends on intended use, specifications and the regulation’s exclusions.

Documentation we help prepare

PLANCK reviews the quality passport, batch analysis reports and supply traceability records and helps identify the assessment route and prepare the required documentation.

Before selecting a route, we check the current text, effective date, transitional provisions and exclusions. Listing a regulation does not mean it already applies to every product in that category.

What to prepare

  • Technical description and intended use
  • The key parameters listed above
  • Models, manufacturer and applicant details
  • Existing conformity evidence

What you receive

A requirements matrix for your product: scope, assessment route, necessary evidence and next actions.
