Annual Survey of End Use of Refined Petroleum Products Reporting Guide

The following provides information to assist in completing the Annual Survey of End Use of Refined Petroleum Products.

The end use categories requested in this questionnaire have been established to correlate as close as possible with the 1997 North American Industry Classification System (NAICS).

In completing this form include the known or an authoritative estimate of the sales by category of jobbers, agents etc., who themselves are not respondents. If such sales of a partiucular jobber’s or agents disposition of a product are not available, deliveries to that re-seller should be classified as “non-allocated” sales and detailes accordingly.
