Vacuum residua from Venezuela heavy and medium oils upgraded under the same conditions were characterized using different analytical techniques: TLC-FID, H NMR, HPLC, SEC-DCP. Parameters or chemical properties such as crude maturity, size distribution of hydrocarbons and metal compounds, asphaltene characteristics, sulphur contents, correlate with the processability of these heavy ends.
