Notes: The 4th quarter of 1993 was a transitional period between the predecessor EIA-782 survey system and the revised EIA-782 survey sytem. The revised survey system contains additional product and sales categories, which may not be consistent with categories derived from the predecessor survey system. Beginning January 1994 all data are from the revised survey system and are consistent. Notes: Values shown for the current month are preliminary. Values shown for previous months are revised. Data are final upon publication in the Petroleum Marketing Annual.
