Notes: Major changes of positions in the above table since Jan. 1, 2010, involve only Chevron; Valero moves down two notches; China National Petroleum Co. and Total each moves down a notch. Chevron's move is based on capacity increases at GS Caltex and Caltex Australia. Valero completed the sale of refineries. On December 17, 2010, Valero Energy Corp. announced the completion of the sale of its 185,000 b/d refinery at Paulsboro, N.J. to PBF Holding Company LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of PBF Energy Company LLC of Greenwich, Conn. In April 2010, Swiss refiner Petroplus Holdings agreed to buy Valero's Delaware City refinery via its investment joint venture PBF Energy. CNPC moved as a result of Valero's changes, and Total reported decreased capacities. Other refiners remained at the same ranking as they started the year. – Please read Warren R. True and Leena Koottungal, "Global Capacity Growth Slows, But Asian Refineries Bustle," OGJ, Dec 6, 2010.
*Includes partial interests in refineries not wholly owned by the company.  **Includes holdings in Caltex Oil and GS Caltex.
