This report summarizes two years of intense activity dedicated to the study of the issues confronted by the refining industry in Latin America and the Caribbean. Following the program for phasing out of lead from gasoline and convinced of the importance to progress with the harmonization of oil product’s technical specifications, our organizations – OLADE, ARPEL and the World Bank– decided to jointly carry out a regional study on the refining sector, its anticipated changes, capital requirements and related financial needs.
