HS v2017 Code: 2710

About petroleum oils and oils from bituminous minerals, not crude; preparations n.e.c, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or oils from bituminous minerals; these being the basic constituents of the preparations; waste oils

HS code 2710 covers a wide range of petroleum-based products, excluding crude oil. These refined oils and preparations are essential components in various industries, from transportation and manufacturing to lubricants and specialty chemicals. As a key segment of the global energy and petrochemical sectors, this industry plays a vital role in supporting economic growth and development worldwide.

Production process

The production of the goods classified under HS code 2710 typically involves refining and processing of crude oil or bituminous minerals. This includes distillation, cracking, and other advanced techniques to separate and purify the desired petroleum fractions. Depending on the specific product, additional processing steps such as blending, treating, or compounding may be employed to create the final preparations.

Production inputs

The main inputs for this industry are crude oil, bituminous minerals, and other petroleum feedstocks. Specialized equipment and machinery, such as refineries, distillation towers, and blending facilities, are also crucial inputs. Additionally, various chemical additives, catalysts, and other processing aids may be required depending on the specific product being manufactured.

Production outputs

The outputs of this industry include a wide range of refined petroleum products, such as motor fuels (2710 Petroleum oils and oils from bituminous minerals, not crude; preparations n.e.c, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or oils from bituminous minerals; these being the basic constituents of the preparations; waste oils), lubricants (3403 (Lubricating preparations (including cutting-oil preparations, bolt or nut release preparations, anti-rust or anti-corrosion preparations and mould release preparations, based on lubricants) and preparations of a kind used for the oil or grease treatment of textile materials, leather, furskins or other materials, but excluding preparations containing, as basic constituents, 70% or more by weight of petroleum oils or of oils obtained from bituminous minerals)), and specialty chemicals (3811 (Anti-knock preparations, oxidation inhibitors, gum inhibitors, viscosity improvers, anti-corrosive preparations and other prepared additives, for mineral oils (including gasoline) or for other liquids used for the same purposes as mineral oils)). These outputs are then consumed by various downstream industries, such as transportation, manufacturing, and construction.
