Manufacture of refined petroleum products
NACE v2.0 Code: C19.20
About manufacture of refined petroleum products
NACE code 19.20 covers the manufacture of refined petroleum products, a critical industry that plays a vital role in the global economy. This sector is responsible for transforming crude oil and other feedstocks into a wide range of essential fuels, lubricants, and petrochemical products that power industries, transportation, and modern life. As a key component of the energy supply chain, the manufacture of refined petroleum products is a strategically important industry that significantly impacts economic development and energy security worldwide.
Production process
The manufacture of refined petroleum products involves a complex series of processes, primarily centered around the distillation and refining of crude oil. The main production techniques include fractional distillation, which separates the crude oil into its various components based on their boiling points, as well as catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and other advanced refining methods that further process the distilled fractions into a diverse range of finished products.
Production inputs
The primary input for the manufacture of refined petroleum products is crude oil, which is sourced from oil fields and transported to refineries. Other key inputs include natural gas liquids, catalysts, and various chemicals used in the refining processes. Refineries also require significant infrastructure, such as storage tanks, pipelines, and specialized equipment, as well as a skilled workforce to operate the complex production facilities.
Production outputs
The manufacture of refined petroleum products yields a wide array of outputs, including gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuel, heating oil, lubricants, and a variety of petrochemical feedstocks. These refined products are then distributed and sold to various industries and consumers, including the 49.50 Transport via pipeline, 46.71 Wholesale of solid, liquid and gaseous fuels and related products, and 19.10 Manufacture of basic chemicals, fertilizers and nitrogen compounds, plastics and synthetic rubber in primary forms sectors, among others.
