- Format
- Tabular statistical time series delivered as spreadsheet (Excel) files by email after purchase, on 12-month subscription or one-time purchase; the survey family is Excel-formatted for pivoting and integration
- Volume
- Small but deep: ~480 monthly observations per US series (1/1980-2/2020 = 481 months) for this table alone; the wider statistical-table catalogue is described as 150+ energy statistical tables and 40+ industry surveys, and the Worldwide Refinery Survey is a per-refinery/per-unit census of the global refining fleet (order thousands of facility-unit rows per annual edition)
- Users
- Small institutional base: the affiliated OGJ site-licence programme has been described as ~42 partner companies with 90,000+ subscribers, of which the paid statistical/survey dataset buyers are an order of 100-500 organisations (inferred from a $500-per-dataset single/multiple/enterprise licence model)
- History

- Update frequency

- Growth
- Mature with a stagnant head-series: the catalogue and storefront remain actively maintained (2024-2026 Worldwide Refinery Survey editions are listed), but this specific monthly capacity table's stated coverage ends 2/2020, so the flagship series is not current — an established, monetised asset with a currency gap rather than a growth product
- Launched
- Publication lineage 1902 (OGJ founded, originally Oil Investor's Journal); the Research Center storefront and Excel survey/statistical product line date to ~2001-2002 (announcements of surveys in Excel format and the OGJ Online statistical tables appear from that period)
