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.
