depending on the source of crude.

Section 4: First Aid Measures


Eye Contact: For direct contact, remove contact lenses if present and easy to do. Immediately hold eyelids apart and flush the
affected eye(s) with clean water for at least 20 minutes. Seek immediate medical attention.
Skin Contact: Remove contaminated shoes and clothing, and flush affected area(s) with large amounts of water. If skin surface is
damaged, apply a clean dressing and seek medical attention. If skin surface is not damaged, cleanse affected area(s) thoroughly
by washing with mild soap and water or a waterless hand cleaner. If irritation or redness develops, seek medical attention. Wash
contaminated clothing before reuse.
Inhalation (Breathing): Immediately move victim away from exposure and into fresh air in a position comfortable for breathing. If
respiratory symptoms or other symptoms of exposure develop, seek immediate medical attention. If victim is not breathing, clear
airway and immediately begin artificial respiration. If breathing difficulties develop, oxygen should be administered by qualified
personnel. Seek immediate medical attention.
Ingestion (Swallowing): Aspiration hazard: Do not induce vomiting or give anything by mouth because this material can enter the
lungs and cause severe lung damage. If victim is drowsy or unconscious and vomiting, place on the left side with the head down. If
possible, do not leave victim unattended and observe closely for adequacy of breathing. Seek medical attention.
Most important symptoms and effects
Acute: Headache, drowsiness, dizziness, loss of coordination, disorientation and fatigue.
Delayed: Dry skin and possible irritation with repeated or prolonged exposure.
Notes to Physician: At high concentrations hydrogen sulfide may produce pulmonary edema, respiratory depression, and/or
respiratory paralysis. The first priority in treatment should be the establishment of adequate ventilation and the administration of
100% oxygen. Animal studies suggest that nitrites are a useful antidote, however, documentation of the efficacy of nitrites in
humans is lacking. If the diagnosis of hydrogen sulfide poisoning is confirmed and if the patient does not respond rapidly to
supportive care, the use of nitrites may be an effective antidote if delivered within the first few minutes of exposure. For adults the
dose is 10 mL of a 3% NaNO2 solution (0.5 gm NaNO2 in 15 mL water) I.V. over 2-4 minutes. The dosage should be adjusted in
children or in the presence of anemia, and methemoglobin levels, arterial blood gases, and electrolytes should be monitored
closely.
Epinephrine and other sympathomimetic drugs may initiate cardiac arrhythmias in persons exposed to high concentrations of
hydrocarbon solvents (e.g., in enclosed spaces or with deliberate abuse). The use of other drugs with less arrhythmogenic
potential should be considered. If sympathomimetic drugs are administered, observe for the development of cardiac arrhythmias.
Federal regulations (29 CFR 1910.1028) specify medical surveillance programs for certain exposures to benzene above the action
level or PEL (specified in Section (i)(1)(i) of the Standard). In addition, employees exposed in an emergency situation shall, as
described in Section (i)(4)(i), provide a urine sample at the end of the shift for measurement of urine phenol.
Other Comments: Before attempting rescue, first responders should be alert to the possible presence of hydrogen sulfide, a
poisonous gas with the smell of rotten eggs, and should consider the need for respiratory protection (see Section 8). Remove
casualty to fresh air as quickly as possible. Immediately begin artificial respiration if breathing has ceased. Consider whether
oxygen administration is needed. Obtain medical advice for further treatment.

Section 5: Fire-Fighting Measures

NFPA 704 Hazard Class


Health: 2

Flammability: 4

Instability: 0

(0-Minimal, 1-Slight, 2-Moderate, 3-Serious, 4-Severe)

Unusual Fire & Explosion Hazards: Extremely flammable. This material can be ignited by heat, sparks, flames, or other sources
of ignition (e.g., static electricity, pilot lights, mechanical/electrical equipment, and electronic devices such as cell phones,
computers, calculators, and pagers which have not been certified as intrinsically safe). Vapors may travel considerable distances to
a source of ignition where they can ignite, flash back, or explode. May create vapor/air explosion hazard indoors, in confined
spaces, outdoors, or in sewers. This product will float and can be reignited on surface water. Vapors are heavier than air and can
accumulate in low areas. If container is not properly cooled, it can rupture in the heat of a fire. Hazardous
combustion/decomposition products, including hydrogen sulfide, may be released by this material when exposed to heat or fire.
Use caution and wear protective clothing, including respiratory protection.
Extinguishing Media: Dry chemical, carbon dioxide, or foam is recommended. Water spray is recommended to cool or protect
exposed materials or structures. Carbon dioxide can displace oxygen. Use caution when applying carbon dioxide in confined
spaces. Simultaneous use of foam and water on the same surface is to be avoided as water destroys the foam. Water may be
ineffective for extinguishment, unless used under favorable conditions by experienced fire fighters.
Fire Fighting Instructions: For fires beyond the initial stage, emergency responders in the immediate hazard area should wear
protective clothing. When the potential chemical hazard is unknown, in enclosed or confined spaces, a self contained breathing
apparatus should be worn. In addition, wear other appropriate protective equipment as conditions warrant (see Section 8).
Isolate immediate hazard area and keep unauthorized personnel out. Stop spill/release if it can be done safely. Move undamaged
containers from immediate hazard area if it can be done safely. Water spray may be useful in minimizing or dispersing vapors and
to protect personnel. Cool equipment exposed to fire with water, if it can be done safely. Avoid spreading burning liquid with water
used for cooling purposes.
Hazardous Combustion Products: Combustion may yield smoke, carbon monoxide, and other products of incomplete
combustion. Hydrogen sulfide and oxides of nitrogen and sulfur may also be formed.
See Section 9 for Flammable Properties including Flash Point and Flammable (Explosive) Limits

Section 6: Accidental Release Measures


Personal Precautions: Extremely flammable. Spillages of liquid product will create a fire hazard and may form an explosive
atmosphere. Keep all sources of ignition and hot metal surfaces away from spill/release if safe to do so. The use of explosion-proof
electrical equipment is recommended. Contains poisonous hydrogen sulfide gas. If the presence of dangerous amounts of H2S
around the spilled product is suspected, additional or special actions may be warranted, including access restrictions and use of
protective equipment. Stay upwind and away from spill/release. Avoid direct contact with material. For large spillages, notify
persons down wind of the spill/release, isolate immediate hazard area and keep unauthorized personnel out. Wear appropriate
protective equipment, including respiratory protection, as conditions warrant (see Section 8). See Sections 2 and 7 for additional
information on hazards and precautionary measures.
Environmental Precautions: Stop spill/release if it can be done safely. Prevent spilled material from entering sewers, storm
drains, other unauthorized drainage systems, and natural waterways. Use foam on spills to minimize vapors. Use water sparingly
to minimize environmental contamination and reduce disposal requirements. If spill occurs on water notify appropriate authorities
and advise shipping of any hazard. Spills into or upon navigable waters, the contiguous zone, or adjoining shorelines that cause a
sheen or discoloration on the surface of the water, may require notification of the National Response Center (phone number 800424-8802).

______________________________________________________________________________

Methods for Containment and Clean-Up: Notify relevant authorities in accordance with all applicable regulations. Immediate
cleanup of any spill is recommended. Dike far ahead of spill for later recovery or disposal. Absorb spill with inert material such as
sand or vermiculite, and place in suitable container for disposal. If spilled on water remove with appropriate methods (e.g.
skimming, booms or absorbents). In case of soil contamination, remove contaminated soil for remediation or disposal, in
accordance with local regulations.
Recommended measures are based on the most likely spillage scenarios for this material; however local conditions and
regulations may influence or limit the choice of appropriate actions to be taken.

Section 7: Handling and Storage


Precautions for safe handling: Keep away from ignition sources such as heat/sparks/open flame No smoking. Take
precautionary measures against static discharge. Nonsparking tools should be used. Obtain special instructions before use. Do not
handle until all safety precautions have been read and understood. May contain or release dangerous levels of hydrogen sulfide.
Do not breathe vapors or mists. Use only outdoors or in well-ventilated area. Wear protective gloves/clothing and eye/face
protection. Wear respiratory protection. Wash thoroughly after handling. Use good personal hygiene practices and wear
appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8).
Extremely Flammable. May vaporize easily at ambient temperatures. The vapor is heavier than air and may create an explosive
mixture of vapor and air. Beware of accumulation in confined spaces and low lying areas. Open container slowly to relieve any
pressure. Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling or processing this material. To
avoid fire or explosion, dissipate static electricity during transfer by grounding and bonding containers and equipment before
transferring material. The use of explosion-proof electrical equipment is recommended and may be required (see appropriate fire
codes). Refer to NFPA-70 and/or API RP 2003 for specific bonding/grounding requirements. Do not enter confined spaces such as
tanks or pits without following proper entry procedures such as ASTM D-4276 and 29CFR 1910.146. Do not wear contaminated
clothing or shoes. Keep contaminated clothing away from sources of ignition such as sparks or open flames.
Mercury and other heavy metals may be present in trace quantities in crude oil, raw natural gas, and condensates. Production and
processing of these materials can lead to "drop-out" of elemental mercury in enclosed vessels and pipe work, typically at the low
point of any process equipment because of its density. Mercury may also occur in other process system deposits such as sludges,
sands, scales, waxes, and filter media. Personnel engaged in work with equipment where mercury deposits might occur (confined
space entry, sampling, opening drain valves, draining process lines, etc), may be exposed to a mercury hazard (see sections 3 and
8).
Static Accumulation Hazard: Electrostatic charge may accumulate and create a hazardous condition when handling this material.
To minimize this hazard, bonding and grounding of tanks, transfer piping, and storage tank level floats are necessary but may not,
by themselves, be sufficient. Review all operations which have the potential of generating and accumulating an electrostatic
charge and/or a flammable atmosphere (including tank and container filling, splash filling, tank cleaning, sampling, gauging, switch
loading, filtering, mixing, agitation, and vacuum truck operations) and use appropriate mitigating procedures. Special care should
be given to ensure that special slow load procedures for "switch loading" are followed to avoid the static ignition hazard that can
exist when higher flash point material (such as fuel oil or diesel) is loaded into tanks previously containing low flash point products
(such as gasoline or naphtha). For more information, refer to OSHA Standard 29 CFR 1910.106, 'Flammable and Combustible
Liquids', National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 77, 'Recommended Practice on Static Electricity', and/or the American
Petroleum Institute (API) Recommended Practice 2003, 'Protection Against Ignitions Arising Out of Static, Lightning, and Stray
Currents'.
Conditions for safe storage: This material may contain or release poisonous hydrogen sulfide gas. In a tank, barge, or other
closed container, the vapor space above this material may accumulate hazardous concentrations of hydrogen sulfide. Check
atmosphere for oxygen content, H2S, and flammability prior to entry. Keep container(s) tightly closed and properly labeled. Use
and store this material in cool, dry, well-ventilated areas away from heat, direct sunlight, hot metal surfaces, and all sources of
ignition. Store only in approved containers. Post area "No Smoking or Open Flame." Keep away from any incompatible material
(see Section 10). Protect container(s) against physical damage. Outdoor or detached storage is preferred. Indoor storage should
meet OSHA standards and appropriate fire codes.
"Empty" containers retain residue and may be dangerous. Do not pressurize, cut, weld, braze, solder, drill, grind, or expose such
containers to heat, flame, sparks, or other sources of ignition. They may explode and cause injury or death. "Empty" drums should
be completely drained, properly bunged, and promptly shipped to the supplier or a drum reconditioner. All containers should be
disposed of in an environmentally safe manner and in accordance with governmental regulations. Before working on or in tanks
which contain or have contained this material, refer to OSHA regulations, ANSI Z49.1, and other references pertaining to cleaning,
repairing, welding, or other contemplated operations.

Note: State, local or other agencies or advisory groups may have established more stringent limits. Consult an industrial
hygienist or similar professional, or your local agencies, for further information.
Engineering controls: If current ventilation practices are not adequate to maintain airborne concentrations below the established
exposure limits, additional engineering controls may be required.
Eye/Face Protection: The use of eye protection (such as splash goggles) that meets or exceeds ANSI Z.87.1 is recommended
when there is potential liquid contact to the eye. Depending on conditions of use, a face shield may be necessary.
Skin/Hand Protection: The use of gloves impervious to the specific material handled is advised to prevent skin contact. Users
should check with manufacturers to confirm the breakthrough performance of their products. Depending on exposure and use
conditions, additional protection may be necessary to prevent skin contact including use of items such as chemical resistant boots,
aprons, arm covers, hoods, coveralls, or encapsulated suits. Suggested protective materials: Nitrile
Respiratory Protection: A NIOSH approved, self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) or equivalent operated in a pressure
demand or other positive pressure mode should be used in situations of oxygen deficiency (oxygen content less than 19.5
percent), unknown exposure concentrations, or situations that are immediately dangerous to life or health (IDLH).
A respiratory protection program that meets or is equivalent to OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134 and ANSI Z88.2 should be followed
whenever workplace conditions warrant a respirator's use.
If benzene concentrations equal or exceed applicable exposure limits, OSHA requirements for personal protective equipment,
exposure monitoring, and training may apply (29CFR1910.1028 - Benzene).
Workplace monitoring plans should consider the possibility that heavy metals such as mercury may concentrate in processing
vessels and equipment presenting the possibility of exposure during various sampling and maintenance operations. Implement
appropriate respiratory protection and the use of other protective equipment as dictated by monitoring results (See Sections 2 and
7).
Other Protective Equipment: Eye wash and quick-drench shower facilities should be available in the work area. Thoroughly
clean shoes and wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
Suggestions provided in this section for exposure control and specific types of protective equipment are based on
readily available information. Users should consult with the specific manufacturer to confirm the performance of their
protective equipment. Specific situations may require consultation with industrial hygiene, safety, or engineering
professionals.

Continued exposure to high concentrations can result in vomiting, cardiac irregularities and sudden loss of consciousness.
This material contains hydrogen sulfide, a poisonous gas with the smell of rotten eggs. The smell disappears rapidly because
of olfactory fatigue so odor may not be a reliable indicator of exposure. Effects of overexposure include irritation of the eyes,
nose, throat and respiratory tract, blurred vision, photophobia (sensitivity to light), and pulmonary edema (fluid accumulation in
the lungs). Severe exposures can result in nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness or cramps, headache, disorientation and other
signs of nervous system depression, irregular heartbeats, convulsions, respiratory failure, and death.

Information on Toxicological Effects of Components


Natural Gas Condensate ..C2-8
Carcinogenicity: Two year inhalation studies of vaporized unleaded gasoline produced an increased incidence of kidney tumors
in male rats and liver tumors in female mice. Repeated skin application of various petroleum naphthas in mice for two years
resulted in an increased incidence of skin tumors but only in the presence of severe skin irritation. Follow-up mechanistic studies
suggest that the occurrence of these tumors may be the consequence of promotional processes and not relevant to human risk
assessment. Epidemiology data collected from a study of more than 18,000 petroleum marketing and distribution workers showed
no increased risk of leukemia, multiple myeloma, or kidney cancer from gasoline exposure. Unleaded gasoline has been identified
as a possible carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
Target Organs: Two year inhalation studies of wholly vaporized unleaded gasoline, and 90 days studies of various petroleum
naphthas, did not produce significant target organ toxicity in laboratory animals. Nephropathy in male rats, characterized by the
accumulation of alpha-2-u- globulin in epithelial cells of the proximal tubules was observed, however follow-up studies suggest that
these changes are unique to the male rat.
Reproductive Toxicity: No evidence of developmental toxicity was found in pregnant laboratory animals (rats and mice) exposed
to high vapor concentrations of unleaded gasoline and petroleum naphthas via inhalation. A two-generation reproductive toxicity
study of vapor recovery gasoline did not adversely affect reproductive function or offspring survival and development.
n-Hexane
Target Organs: Excessive exposure to n-hexane can result in peripheral neuropathies. The initial symptoms are symmetrical
sensory numbness and paresthesias of distal portions of the extremities. Motor weakness is typically observed in muscles of
the toes and fingers but may also involve muscles of the arms, thighs and forearms. The onset of these symptoms may be
delayed for several months to a year after the beginning of exposure. The neurotoxic properties of n-hexane are potentiated by
exposure to methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl ketone.
Reproductive Toxicity: Prolonged exposure to high concentrations of n-hexane (>1,000 ppm) resulted in decreased sperm
count and degenerative changes in the testes of rats but not those of mice.
Cyclohexane
Reproductive Toxicity: Two-generation reproduction and developmental toxicity studies using rats and rabbits exposed
(whole-body) to atmospheric concentrations up to 7000 ppm cyclohexane did not detect evidence of developmental toxicity in
either species.
Toluene
Carcinogenicity: Exposure of rats and mice to toluene at concentrations ranging from 120-1200 ppm for two years did not
demonstrate evidence of carcinogenicity. Toluene has not been listed as a carcinogen by IARC.
Target Organs: Epidemiology studies suggest that chronic occupational overexposure to toluene may damage color vision.
Subchronic and chronic inhalation studies with toluene produced kidney and liver damage, hearing loss and central nervous
system (brain) damage in laboratory animals. Intentional misuse by deliberate inhalation of high concentrations of toluene has
been shown to cause liver, kidney, and central nervous system damage, including hearing loss and visual disturbances.
Reproductive Toxicity: Exposure to toluene during pregnancy has demonstrated limited evidence of developmental toxicity in
laboratory animals. Decreased fetal body weight and increased skeletal variations in both inhalation and oral studies, but only
at doses that were maternally toxic. No fetal toxicity was seen at doses that were not maternally toxic. Decreased sperm
counts have been observed in male rats in the absence of a reduction in fertility. Toluene has been reported to cause mental
or growth retardation in the children of solvent abusers who directly inhale toluene during pregnancy.
Benzene
Carcinogenicity: Benzene is an animal carcinogen and is known to produce acute myelogenous leukemia (a form of cancer)
in humans. Benzene has been identified as a human carcinogen by IARC, the US National Toxicology Program and the USOccupational Safety and Health Administration.
Target Organs: Prolonged or repeated exposures to benzene vapors can cause damage to the blood and blood forming
organs, including disorders like leukopenia, thrombocytopenia, and aplastic anemia.

______________________________________________________________________________

Reproductive Toxicity: Some studies in occupationally exposed women have suggested benzene exposure increased risk of
miscarriage and stillbirth and decreased birth weight and gestational age. The size of the effects detected in these studies was
small, and ascertainment of exposure and outcome in some cases relied on self-reports, which may limit the reliability of these
results.
Germ Cell Mutagenicity: Benzene exposure has resulted in chromosomal aberrations in human lymphocytes and animal
bone marrow cells. Exposure has also been associated with chromosomal aberrations in sperm cells in human and animal
studies.

Section 12: Ecological Information


Toxicity: Acute aquatic toxicity studies on samples of gasoline and naphtha streams show acute toxicity values greater than 1
mg/L and mostly in the range 1-100 mg/L. These tests were carried out on water accommodated fractions, in closed systems to
prevent evaporative loss. Results are consistent with the predicted aquatic toxicity of these substances based on their hydrocarbon
composition. These substances should be regarded as toxic to aquatic organisms, with the potential to cause long term adverse
effects in the aquatic environment. Classification: H411; Chronic Cat 2.
Persistence and Degradability: The hydrocarbons in this material are not readily biodegradable but are regarded as inherently
biodegradable since their hydrocarbon components can be degraded by microorganisms.
Persistence per IOPC Fund definition: Non-Persistent
Bioaccumulative Potential: Log Kow values measured for the hydrocarbon components of this material range from 3 to greater
than 6 and therefore are regarded as having the potential to bioaccumulate. In practice, metabolic processes or physical properties
may prevent this effect or limit bioavailability.
Mobility in Soil: On release to water, hydrocarbons will float on the surface and since they are sparingly soluble, the only
significant loss is volatilization to air. In air, these hydrocarbons are photodegraded by reaction with hydroxyl radicals with half lives
varying from 6.5 days for benzene to 0.5 days for n-dodecane.
Other Adverse Effects: None anticipated.

Section 13: Disposal Considerations


The generator of a waste is always responsible for making proper hazardous waste determinations and needs to consider state
and local requirements in addition to federal regulations.
This material, if discarded as produced, would not be a federally regulated RCRA "listed" hazardous waste. However, it would
likely be identified as a federally regulated RCRA hazardous waste for the following characteristic(s) shown below. See Sections 7
and 8 for information on handling, storage and personal protection and Section 9 for physical/chemical properties. It is possible
that the material as produced contains constituents which are not required to be listed in the MSDS but could affect the hazardous
waste determination. Additionally, use which results in chemical or physical change of this material could subject it to regulation as
a hazardous waste.
Container contents should be completely used and containers should be emptied prior to discard. Container residues and rinseates
could be considered to be hazardous wastes.
