The refinery complex is used to produce fuels and petrochemical feedstocks. Fuels produced include gasoline, jet fuel, distillates, diesel, and residual fuels. Petrochemical feedstocks and refinery by- products may include methane, ethane, propane, butane, butylene, toluene, propylene, paraffin wax, carbon black oil, cumene, sulfur and petroleum coke. Zone procedures would exempt the activity from Customs duty payments on the foreign products used in its exports. The application indicates that the savings from zone procedures would help improve the refinery's international competitiveness.
