Petroleum sector is categorized into two categories namely upstream
and downstream. Upstream activities involves exploration and
production activities, while downstream includes importation, storage,
transformation, export, inland transportation of crude oil and refined
petroleum products, wholesale and retail distribution of petroleum
products including liquefied petroleum gas. In the context of The
Energy and Water Utilities Regulatory Authority Act, Cap 414 the
petroleum downstream is referred to as the regulated petroleum subsector.

MARKETING
Like other sectors of the oil and gas business, the marketing and
distribution of petroleum products takes place on a vast, global scale.
Every day, hundreds of millions of companies and individuals buy
these products at wholesale or directly from retail outlets that number
in the hundreds of thousands worldwide. If we include indirect users of
petroleum products, the number of consumers runs into the billions.
