The information in this assay was prepared by eni divisione refining&marketing - Centro Ricerche San Donato Milanese. It is for your private information and we are not soliciting or suggesting any action based upon it. While this material is based upon information that
we consider reliable, nevertheless, despite our efforts, it may not be accurate, up to date or applicable to the circumstances of any particular case. In particular, the assay is based on a small sample only, therefore it may not be wholly representative of the crude in
question. In addition, crude yield structures change over time and less recently dated assays are thus less representative of the crude in question.
