Abstract

The concentrations of O, Na, Cl, V, Mn and Ni in crude oils of different origins were determined, using sampling (SNAA) and on-stream (ONAA) activation analyses. Samples were irradiated with thermal and fast neutrons produced by a 0.3 mg252Cf source and a 14 MeV generator. The H-content and the C/H atomic ratio have been determined by thermal neutron reflection method using an 18 GBq Pu−Be source.
