Mixed Sweet Blend

Stream Description

Mixed Sweet Blend (MSW) is the benchmark conventionally produced light sweet crude for western Canada. It is often referenced on crude price reports as Edmonton Par Crude. It is a fully blended aggregate of many feeder streams and only begins its existence in blend tanks in Edmonton, Alberta.

Most Recent Sample Details

Batch: MSW-6280 --- Date: July 03, 2024 --- Sample Location: Edmonton

Mixed Sweet Blend at Edmonton recorded marginally elevated density and nonanes for the July sample. Simulated distillation results showed a shift from the distillate and gas oil cuts to the residue cut.
