Crude Oil Cuts Petroleum Cuts: C1 / C2 C3 C4 C5 C6

This document shows the cuts and boiling points of various petroleum products obtained from crude oil refining. Crude oil is separated into lighter cuts like fuel gas and propane at lower temperatures, gasoline and naphtha between 0-185°C, kerosene from 220-240°C, gas oil from 360-380°C, distillates up to 600°C, and vacuum residue at the bottom. Each cut consists of hydrocarbon molecules (Cn) within a certain carbon number range.
