This part of our site contains some facts and figures about the scope of our members' activities and their contribution to the UK's economy.
The UK downstream oil sector comprises over 200 companies involved in the refining, distribution and marketing of petroleum products.
Data taken from the published accounts of our members shows that over the last 5 years, our members averaged a return.
In its natural state, crude oil has little practical use but by refining it we can end up with liquid petroleum gas, petrol, diesel, jet fuel, gas oil and heating oil, and residues such as bitumen.
Storing, moving and delivering fuel to the end user is a very important element in the economics of the downstream industry.
Although the retailing of fuels on the filling station forecourt is a familiar everyday feature, a similar volume of fuel and other products is sold.
