Bonny Light oil is a high grade of Nigerian crude oil with high API gravity (low specific gravity), produced in the Niger Delta basin and named after the prolific region around the city of Bonny.

Bonny Light Crude Oil (BLCO) is ship overseas to our counterparty refineries and chemical plants, process crude oil and other oil-based feedstock to produce/supply motor & jet fuels, lubricants and chemical products. The Nigerian products as superior and environmentally friendly over the tested foreign crude.

Light Crude Oil is liquid petroleum, which contains a low density and can flow freely at room temperature. It has a low specific gravity, high API gravity and low viscosity because of the presence of high percentage of fractions of light hydrocarbons.

It is composed of a high number of paraffin’s, which are branched and straight chain hydrocarbons that have high hydrogen to carbon ratio. It contains two hydrogen atoms each for a single carbon atom. It is considered that the best Light Crude Oil contains approximately 60 percent of paraffin.
