About petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, crude

cpc code 12010 covers the classification of crude petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals. This industry is of critical importance to the global economy, as crude oil is the primary feedstock for the production of a wide range of fuels, lubricants, and petrochemicals. The extraction and refining of crude oil is a complex and capital-intensive process, but it remains a vital component of modern industrial and transportation systems.

Production process

Crude oil is typically extracted from underground reservoirs through the use of specialized drilling equipment. Once brought to the surface, the crude oil is transported to refineries where it undergoes a series of distillation and separation processes to produce a variety of refined petroleum products. These production techniques involve the application of heat, pressure, and chemical catalysts to separate the crude oil into its constituent components, such as gasoline, diesel fuel, and lubricating oils.

Production inputs

The main inputs required for the production of crude petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals (cpc code 12010) include the raw materials of crude oil and natural gas, as well as specialized drilling equipment, pipelines, storage tanks, and refining facilities. Additionally, this industry requires significant capital investment, skilled labor, and access to transportation infrastructure to move the extracted and refined products to market.

Production outputs

The primary outputs of the crude petroleum and bituminous minerals industry (cpc code 12010) are a wide range of refined petroleum products, including 23201 Motor spirit, including aviation spirit, 23202 Kerosene, including kerosene type jet fuel, 23203 Gas oils, and 23204 Fuel oils n.e.c.. These refined products are then consumed by a variety of other industries, such as transportation, manufacturing, and power generation.
