NPRA Annual Meeting 2004
Transportation Fuel Production Increased through Yield Improvements
Note: Gasoline yields do not include gasoline from imported blending components.

SWith increases in conversion capacity, light product yields increased, which helped to meet growing transportation demand.

SVirtually all of the increase in yield from crude and unfinished oils was in distillate and jet fuel.  The yield increase in gasoline came from the addition of other components, mainly MTBE.

SLooking ahead, the past yield trends cannot be projected into the future.
