Crude oil processing in December 2024 reached 23.9 MMT, registering a 5.2% increase over December 2023. Public Sector Undertaking (PSU) and Joint Venture (JV) refiners processed 16.3 MMT, while private refiners accounted for 7.5 MMT. Of the total crude processed, indigenous crude contributed 2.1 MMT, while imports dominated at 21.8 MMT.

The production of petroleum products rose to 25.3 MMT in December 2024, up 2.9% from December 2023. Refinery production contributed 24.9 MMT, while 0.3 MMT came from fractionators.
