Sweet crude

Term · Oil and gas · MLC-T-OAG-003725

Crude oil with a very low sulfur content, typically less than 0.5% by weight. This type of crude is highly desirable for refining because it requires less processing to remove impurities, reducing refining costs and environmental impact. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) and Brent crude are examples of sweet crude oils.
