Refinery Information
Indicate the correct description of this establishment.
Definition of Refinery:
• For the purpose of this survey, a refinery is an installation that manufactures finished petroleum products from crude oil,
unfinished oils, natural gas liquids, other hydrocarbons and alcohol. Processes used by a refinery include fractional
distillation, cracking (both catalytic and hydro cracking), coking, reforming, alkylation, isomerization, polymerization,
hydro treating, and sweetening. Products include, but are not limited to, unfinished oils, motor gasoline, aviation gasoline,
special naphthas, kerosene, distillate fuel oil, residual fuel oil, lubricating oils, asphalt and road oil, waxes, petroleum
coke, still gas, and petrochemical feedstocks.
Definition of Nonrefinery (Petrochemical):
• A nonrefinery is an installation that produces substances by the chemical treatment of raw materials derived from
petroleum or natural gas. Among the final products are plastics (including synthetic rubbers), synthetic fibers, chemicals,
drugs, and detergents. A nonrefinery is also called a petrochemical operation.
• Please check the reporting boundaries of the Economic Census - Manufacturing (EC-M) to determine if your
establishment is considered to include an adjacent nonrefinery (petrochemical operation).
Check one box only
18010

Establishment consists of REFINERY operations ONLY.
• (There may be nonrefinery (petrochemical) operations co-located, but those operations are identified
as a separate establishment for purposes of the Economic Census - Manufacturing.)

2

Establishment consists of both REFINERY and NONREFINERY operations.
• For this survey questionnaire, report for the entire establishment, including both refinery and
nonrefinery operations, unless those are identified as a separate establishment for purpose of the
Economic Census - Manufacturing. If nonrefinery is identified as a separate establishment, then the
REFINERY operations ONLY button above should be checked.

Instructions for Completing Form EIA-846B
General Instructions:
1.

Individuals most familiar with the plant energy systems and operations, such as engineers, should complete the
questionnaire especially for the end use and fuel switching sections.

2.

Use the units specified on the questionnaire for reporting all quantities. See the Btu conversion factors on page 6 for
a comprehensive list of various energy conversion factors. If your establishment uses more precise conversion values
for your operations, use them, and indicate in the "Remarks" at the end of the form, the conversion factor(s) used.

3.

Do not consolidate establishments. The reporting boundaries for your establishment should correspond to those used
in the Economic Census - Manufacturing (EC-M). Responses to the MECS questions should be the same activities
as those considered when responding to the matching EC-M.

4.

Report dollar amounts rounded to the nearest dollar (e.g., report $1,257.59 as $1,258).

5.

If you do not maintain book records for particular items, please use carefully prepared estimates.

6.

Enter zeros in the data columns if the value is zero or none.

7.

Complete all applicable sections of the questionnaire.

8.

The sections of this questionnaire are designed so all questions associated with the particular energy source should be
completed before going on to the next energy source. Therefore, within each section, the questionnaire should be
answered from the top to the bottom of the same section, before moving on to the next section.

9.

The energy sources that are preprinted on the questionnaire are considered the most frequently consumed, but they
do not represent a complete list of applicable energy sources. If your establishment has energy sources that meet the
criteria for reporting, but are not preprinted on the questionnaire, please specify those energy sources in the "Other
Types Used as Energy" section and enter the data there.

Section–Specific Instructions:

Fuel Switching Capability: Electricity, Natural Gas, and Total Coal
• Capability to use substitute energy sources means that this establishment’s combustors (for example, boilers, furnaces,
ovens, blast furnaces) had the equipment, either in place or available for installation in 2022, so that substitutions could
actually have been introduced within 30 days without extensive modifications.
• Include switching capability that could have resulted from the use of redundant and/or standby combustors, and from
combustors that were already equipped to fire alternative fuels.
• In addition to the capability of your equipment, when formulating your estimates:
o Make sure to consider both the equipment limitations of your boilers, heaters, and combustors and any

other practical reasons when determining the availability of supply during 2022.

Equipment limitations include:
• The boilers, heaters, or other fuel-consuming equipment are not capable of using anything other than specify fuel
for at least part of the operations.
• Although the boilers, heaters, or combustors would allow using another fuel, doing so would adversely affect a
product. (e.g., altering the pigment in a paint-drying application).
Practical reasons include:
• There is no ready supply of an alternative energy source.
• Environmental restrictions related to air quality limit the amount of the physically usable alternative fuel that could
be used instead.
• A long-term contract in-place that requires the purchase of certain amounts of the energy source in any case.
• Storage of alternative fuels is not available due to potential environmental impact of storage tanks.
o Do not limit your estimated capability by differences in relative prices of energy sources.

• This section is intended to measure your capability to switch, not whether you would switch if you could.
• When estimating your capability to substitute other fuels for electricity receipts, please consider the fuels that could be
used to generate electricity onsite, as well as those that could be directly substituted in combustors.
• If records of fuel-switching capability are not regularly maintained, reasonable approximations are acceptable.
• You will be asked to provide your not switchable amount first, then the switchable.
• Enter a zero if the fuel could not be switched for the specific energy source.
• Please proceed through this section column-by-column.

Fuel Switching Capability: Electricity, Natural Gas, and Total Coal
What is the lowest percentage of price difference of the less expensive substitute that would cause your
establishment to switch from this fuel, regardless of whether or not your establishment actually switched
energy sources during 2022 or did so because of a less expensive substitute? (If you have more than one
possible alternative for the energy source, choose the fuel that would be your most preferred alternative.)
The formula for percentage of price difference is:

• Percent of Price Difference = ((PC-PA)/PC) * 100%
• Where PC = Price per British thermal unit of current fuel
• PA = Price per British thermal unit of alternative fuel

Fuel Switching Capability: Total LPG & NGL, Diesel & Distillate and Residual
• Capability to use substitute energy sources means that this establishment’s combustors (for example, boilers, furnaces,
ovens, blast furnaces) had the equipment, either in place or available for installation in 2022, so that substitutions could
actually have been introduced within 30 days without extensive modifications.
• Include switching capability that could have resulted from the use of redundant and/or standby combustors, and from
combustors that were already equipped to fire alternative fuels.
• In addition to the capability of your equipment, when formulating your estimates:
o

Make sure to consider both the equipment limitations of your boilers, heaters, and combustors and any
other practical reasons when determining the availability of supply during 2022.

Equipment limitations include:
• The boilers, heaters, or other fuel-consuming equipment are not capable of using anything other than specify fuel
for at least part of the operations.
• Although the boilers, heaters, or combustors would allow using another fuel, doing so would adversely affect a
product. (e.g., altering the pigment in a paint-drying application).
Practical reasons include:
• There is no ready supply of an alternative energy source.
• Environmental restrictions related to air quality limit the amount of the physically usable alternative fuel that
could be used instead.
• A long-term contract in-place that requires the purchase of certain amounts of the energy source in any case.
• Storage of alternative fuels is not available due to potential environmental impact of storage tanks.

o

Do not limit your estimated capability by differences in relative prices of energy sources.

• This section is intended to measure your capability to switch, not whether you would switch if you could.
• When estimating your capability to substitute other fuels for electricity receipts, please consider the fuels that could
be used to generate electricity onsite, as well as those that could be directly substituted in combustors.
• If records of fuel-switching capability are not regularly maintained, reasonable approximations are acceptable.
• You will be asked to provide your not switchable amount first, then the switchable.
• Enter a zero if the fuel could not be switched for the specific energy source.
• Please proceed through this section column-by-column.
