FAQ

What work fits NAICS 324110?
  • Operation or leasing of refinery process units committed to specified throughput and product yield targets for fuel and distillate production.
  • Long-term operations and maintenance contracts covering routine turnarounds, catalyst management, and reliability programs for continuous process units.
  • Feedstock handling and pre-treatment services including desalting, heating, and stabilization prior to primary distillation.
  • Implementation and maintenance of emissions control, sulfur recovery, wastewater treatment, and other environmental compliance systems.
When is NAICS 324110 a weak fit?
  • Fuel distribution and terminal operations: missing crude-to-product conversion processes and large-scale distillation units characteristic of refineries.
  • Petrochemical manufacturing focused on dedicated chemical intermediates: missing primary crude distillation and refinery product slates oriented to fuels.
  • Fuel blending and storage-only services: missing conversion units, cracking or reforming operations, and continuous processing controls.
What solicitation language points to NAICS 324110?
  • Scope specifies throughput capacity in barrels, product yield percentages by cut, and feedstock gravity or sulfur content requirements.
  • Performance requirements include process uptime, process safety management compliance, permitted emissions limits, and flare or vapor recovery performance.
  • Contract requires responsibility for process unit maintenance, scheduled turnarounds, operator staffing, and detailed material and safety data tracking.
