This is the chemistry behind every barrel.
Crude oil It’s a mixture of hydrocarbons, from light methane (CH₄) to heavy C20+ molecules.
In a refinery distillation :
• Light molecules rise. Natural gas, LPG, gasoline.
• Mid-range chains condense in the middle. Kerosene, jet fuel, diesel.
• Heavy long chains stay lower. Lube oils, fuel oil, residuals.
The longer the carbon chain, the higher the boiling point.
The higher the boiling point, the heavier the product.
From C1 to C22+, the refinery separates value by physics.
Temperature becomes money.
Every liter of fuel is a controlled sorting of molecules by boiling point.

The Cardiff Devils join the entire ice hockey community in mourning the sudden and tragic passing of Johnny Gaudreau and his brother, Matthew.
Our thoughts and heartfelt condolences go out to the Gaudreau family, their friends and all those who knew and loved Johnny and Matthew.
This is devastating. Pauly was one of the best people I've ever met in the game of hockey. He cared deeply about all of us as players and on a personal level. RIP Pauly, your impact will not be forgotten. The hockey world truly lost a great man today.
