Why it matters
The oil refining & fuels context.
Oil refining and fuels production tracks major U.S. facilities that turn hydrocarbons, renewable feedstocks, or synthetic processes into transport fuels, base oils, and related products. The category includes qualifying refinery investments and fuel-production plants, while excluding extraction, pipelines, terminals, storage, retail infrastructure, and power generation. These projects are capital-intensive industrial systems whose output reaches aviation, freight, manufacturing, and consumer fuel markets.
