Gasoline

45%

Gasoline, also known as petrol, is largely used in passenger cars and had been the remaining bright star in refining, backed by roaring auto sales in India and China.

Margins for other refined products are under pressure compared with previous years due to oversupply.

Naphtha

7%

Naphtha is a feedstock for gasoline or a product used in the petrochemical sector to produce basic materials used for the production of plastics, synthetic fibre and industrial chemicals.

Jet fuel

10%

Jet fuel, also known as aviation turbine fuel (ATF), is a refined product used mostly in jet planes. Jet fuel is considered a middle distillate fuel and tends to be slightly tainted in colour.

Gas oil

29%

Gas oil, also known as diesel, is a fuel mostly used in passenger engines and heavy machinery. It is increasingly being blended with vegetable oils or animal fats to produce biodiesels.

Fuel oil

2%

Fuel oil, known as heavy oil, is mostly used for heating, as a large ship fuel, or for road building. It tends to be sticky, syrupy, dark in color and less flammable than light fuels.
