Cost To Refine Crude Oil
To Retail Gas .48 Per Gal

5-26-7

Back in 1980 the cost to refine, distribute and retail gasoline, or the refiner/marketer margin, averaged about 99 cents per gallon (in inflation-adjusted terms).
 
By 1990 it averaged more than 63 cents per gallon, and by 2000 the margin had declined to 54 cents per gallon. It increased briefly in 2001 as a result of colder than normal weather over the 2000-2001 winter and supply disruptions due to pipeline outages and the introduction of new blends of gasoline as required under the Clean Air Act.
 
The refiner/marketer margin has since come down to an average of 48 cents per gallon in 2005.
