Crude Oil Refining Why refine oil? CONSUMER
Cannot use crude oil Needs motor gasoline, petrochemicals (plastics), cosmetics, paint, etc. OIL PRODUCER Could not sell crude oil to consumer. Must have refiner. REFINER In business to make a margin. Sell refined products for more than cost of crude oil plus refining costs.
