HS v2022 Code: 271012
About petroleum oils and oils from bituminous minerals, not containing biodiesel, not crude, not waste oils; preparations n.e.c, containing by weight 70% or more of petroleum oils or oils from bituminous minerals; light oils and preparations
HS code 271012 covers a wide range of petroleum-based products that are essential for various industries and applications. These light oils and preparations are derived from the refining of crude oil and bituminous minerals, and they play a crucial role in the global energy and transportation sectors. Their versatility and high demand make them a significant component of international trade and the broader economy.
Production process
The production of the petroleum oils and preparations under HS code 271012 typically involves a multi-stage refining process. This process begins with the distillation of crude oil, where the various hydrocarbon fractions are separated based on their boiling points. The light oils and preparations are then further processed through techniques such as catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and blending to meet specific quality and performance requirements.
Production inputs
The main inputs required for the production of HS code 271012 products include crude oil, bituminous minerals, and various additives and chemicals used in the refining and blending processes. Specialized equipment, such as distillation towers, catalytic reactors, and blending facilities, are also essential for the efficient and high-quality production of these petroleum-based products.
Production outputs
The outputs of HS code 271012 include a wide range of light oils and preparations, such as gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, and various industrial solvents and lubricants. These products are then consumed by a diverse range of industries, including 271000 Mineral fuels, mineral oils and products of their distillation; bituminous substances; mineral waxes, 340300 (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 382000 Organic composite solvents and thinners, not elsewhere specified or included; prepared paint or varnish removers, among others.
