1. Primary product receipts Includes quantities of indigenous or imported crude oil (including condensate) and indigenous NGL used directly without being processed in a petroleum refinery and quantities of backflows from the petrochemical industry which, although not primary fuel, are used directly. 2. Gross refinery output Production of finished products at a refinery or blending plant. Excludes refinery losses, but includes refinery fuel. 3. Recycled products Finished products which pass a second time through the marketing network, after having been once delivered to final consumers (e.g. used lubricants which are reprocessed). These quantities should be distinguished from petrochemical backflows. 4. Refinery fuel Petroleum products consumed in support of the operation of a refinery. Excludes products used by oil companies outside the refining process, e.g. bunkers or oil tankers. Includes fuels used for the production at the refineries of electricity and heat sold. 4.1. Of which: used for electricity generation Amounts used to generate electricity in plants at refineries. 4.2. Of which: used for CHP production Amounts used in CHP plants at refineries. 5. Imports and exports 6. International marine bunkers 7. Interproduct transfers Quantities reclassified either because their specification has changed or because they are blended into another product. A negative entry for one product is compensated by a positive entry (or several entries) for one or several products and vice versa; the total net effect should be zero. 8. Products transferred Imported petroleum products which are reclassified as feedstocks for further processing in the refinery, without delivery to final consumers. 9. Stock changes A stock build is shown as a negative number and a stock draw is shown as a positive number. 10. Calculated gross inland deliveries This is defined as: primary product receipts + gross refinery output + recycled products - refinery fuel + imports - exports - international marine bunkers + interproduct transfers - products transferred + stock changes 11. Statistical difference Defined as the calculated gross inland delivery minus the observed one. 12. Observed gross inland deliveries The observed delivery of finished petroleum products from primary sources (e.g. refineries, blending plants, etc.) to the inland market. This figure may differ from the calculated figure due, for example, to differences in coverage and/or differences of definition in different reporting systems. 12.1. Of which: gross deliveries to the petrochemical sector Quantities of fuels delivered to the petrochemical sector. 12.2. Of which: energy use in the petrochemical sector Quantities of oil used as fuel for petrochemical processes such as steam cracking. 12.3. Of which: non-energy use in the petrochemical sector Quantities of oil used in the petrochemical sector for the purpose of producing ethylene, propylene, butylene, synthesis gas, aromatics, butadiene and other hydrocarbon-based raw materials in processes such as steam cracking, aromatics plants and steam reforming. Excludes amounts of oil used for fuel purposes. 13. Backflows from petrochemical sector to refineries 14. Opening and closing stock levels All stocks on national territory, including stocks held by governments, by major consumers or by stockholding organisations, stocks held on board incoming ocean vessels, stocks held in bonded areas and stocks held for others, whether under bilateral government agreement or not. Opening and closing refers to the first and to the last day of the reporting period respectively. 15. Stock changes at public utilities Changes in stocks which are held by public utilities and not included in the stock levels and stock changes reported elsewhere. A stock build is shown as a negative number and a stock draw is shown as a positive number. Includes crude oil and NGL used for direct burn, if applicable. 16. Net calorific value of gross inland deliveries
