1 Wartime requirements of refined products is 33.8 MMT. In order to indicate the total amount of
crude oil required to produce the required 33.8 MMT of refined products, "Refinery Loss and Other Prod-
ucts" were taken to be 14 percent. Thus, 33.8 MMT represented 86 percent of the total crude requirements
of 39.3 MMT. In turn, the total crude requirement was divided into the refined products requirement to
establish the percentage distribution.
