The dominant feature of the refinery industry is still that of
autonomy for each producing country. No country plans to rely on
its neighbours for its petroleum products but rather plans to keep
pace with its local demand. As the investments required are high,
a considerable participation by the government or State-owned
petroleum companies will most often be needed in the establishment
and the management of the refineries. This growing-hold- and control
of governments are also exerted on the prospecting, production and
the hauling of crude petroleum and might be exercised on related
refinery industries, such as the petrochemical industry.
