Illinois leads in petroleum
refining in the Midwest with a combined crude oil distillation capacity
of nearly 0.9 million barrels per day. Illinois also ranks near the
top in consumption of some petroleum products, including 6th in gasoline
and 4th in liquefied petroleum gas. The Chicago, Illinois area is one
of the few regions in the country that uses reformulated gasoline made
with ethanol. For this reason, the Chicago area gasoline market is somewhat
isolated from the rest of the country's gasoline market. The Illinois
suburbs east of St. Louis, Missouri, also use a fairly unique gasoline.
Less than 1 percent of the homes in the state use heating oil as their
primary heating fuel, compared with nearly 81 percent for natural gas.
Because Illinois is centrally located, the state serves as a hub for the
many interstate oil pipelines that traverse the state.
