Instructions for Completing Form EIA-847
General Instructions:
1.

Individuals most familiar with the plant energy systems and operations, such as engineers, should complete the
questionnaire.

2.

Use the units specified on the questionnaire for reporting all quantities. See the Btu conversion factors on page 5 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
from the top to the bottom of the same section, before moving on to the next section.

9.

Establishments in NAICS code 324110 will not be required to answer nonfuel (feedstock) energy questions within
this questionnaire.

Section–Specific Instructions:
Company Information
In this section, indicate any changes in the company name, address, or zip code.
Contact Information
Enter address and other contact information for the person most knowledgeable about completing this questionnaire, and
the person whom we should contact if we have any questions concerning this filing.
Establishment Information
In this section, indicate any changes in the establishment ownership during 2025 and indicate the period covered by this
filing, whether the calendar year or other period.

Energy Sources
Reporting Criteria
An energy source should be reported on this questionnaire if:
• the energy source was consumed as a fuel, (that is, for heat, power, or electricity generation); or
• the energy source was consumed as a nonfuel (feedstock, raw material input); or
• for selected energy sources, the energy source was shipped offsite from this establishment. The energy sources
for which you will be asked to supply shipments data are:
o
o

LPG (Butane, Ethane, Propane, Mixtures, and Other LPG/NGL)
Petroleum coke (Unrefined, green or calcined)

3

Instructions for Completing Form EIA-847, cont.
If your only means of an energy source during 2025 was a byproduct (or product) of an energy source used as a feedstock
(or raw material input) that byproduct energy source should be reported only if it was at least partially consumed onsite as
a fuel or shipped offsite. If the byproduct (or product) energy source was only itself consumed as a nonfuel (feedstock), it
should be excluded.
Data are collected for the following energy sources (fuels):
Electricity
Natural Gas
Liquefied Petroleum Gases (LPG) and Natural Gas Liquids (NGL)
• Butane
• Ethane
• Propane
• Mixtures of Butane, Ethane, and Propane
• Other LPG and NGL which includes butylenes, ethylene, and propylene
Coal
• Anthracite
• Bituminous and Subbituminous
• Lignite
Petroleum Coke

• Marketable Petroleum Coke - Unrefined or Green
• Marketable Petroleum Coke - Calcined

Energy Sources Reporting Examples
Example 1 – Your establishment depended entirely on electricity for heat and power, and no combustible energy sources
were consumed. In this instance, complete the "Electricity" section. No data should be entered in any other energy source
(fuel) section.
Example 2 – Butane is used as a feedstock to produce butylenes onsite. The butylene is then used as a feedstock to
produce butadiene which is shipped offsite. Report the butane used as a feedstock because it is not used as a fuel or
shipped offsite. Butylene would not be reported because its only means of supply was as a byproduct and it was only used
as a feedstock. Butadiene would not be reported as a shipment because it is not an identified energy source.
Remarks
Please provide any explanations that may be helpful to us in understanding your reported data, including any Btu
conversion factors used, if different from those provided in the enclosed table.

Conversion Factors Table
To the right are Btu conversion factors
that should be used only if you do not
know the actual Btu factor of the fuels
consumed at your establishment site.
If your establishment uses more precise
conversion values for your operations,
such as the conversion factors used for
the Green House Gas (GHG) Reporting
Rule, use them in place of the
approximations given below. However,
please identify in the Remarks section
(page 15), the conversion factor(s) used,
if different from those listed to the right.
General Definitions:

Conversion Factor(s)

Electricity

3,412 Btu/kilowatthour

Natural Gas

1.039 million Btu/1,000 cubic feet
10.39 therms/1,000 cubic feet
3.369 million Btu/barrel
0.08021 million Btu/gallon
4.5 pounds/gallon

Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG)
Ethane

2.783 million Btu/barrel
0.06626 million Btu/gallon

Propane

3.841 million Btu/barrel
0.09145 million Btu/gallon

Coal

20.275 million Btu/short ton

Coal (use for coke plants only)

28.666 million Btu/short ton

Petroleum Coke

6.135 million Btu/barrel
30.675 million Btu/short ton
5 barrels/short ton

Btu = British thermal unit(s)
One barrel = 42 gallons
One short ton = 2,000 pounds
Examples of conversion from physical
quantities to Btu include:
• Your establishment consumed 250
barrels of petroleum coke in 2025.
The Btu equivalent is:
(250 barrels) x (6.135 million Btu/
barrel)
= 1,533.75 million Btu
= 1,533,750,000 Btu
• Your establishment consumed 300
short tons of petroleum coke in 2025.
The Btu equivalent is:
(300 short tons) x (30.675 million Btu/
short ton
= 9,202.5 million Btu
= 9,202,500,000 Btu
