Petroleum Refineries federal obligations in Virginia

Petroleum Refineries (NAICS 324110) shows $444,227,916.56 in USAspending.gov obligations with Virginia as place of performance. Fourteen thousand nine hundred ninety-six awards sit behind that total — a high row count relative to the dollar sum, not fifteen thousand refineries. The join is a Census manufacturing code crossed with a state location field, not Virginia's entire energy economy. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • NAICS 324110 in Virginia shows $444,227,916.56 in USAspending obligations on 14,996 awards.
  • The code is petroleum refining, not gasoline stations or crude extraction.
  • Fourteen thousand nine hundred ninety-six awards are rows, not a refinery census.
  • The total is commitments, not gallons delivered or a throughput ranking.

Virginia x 324110 is a refinery join, not a barrel census

This page pairs NAICS 324110, PETROLEUM REFINERIES, with Virginia place of performance. The code covers establishments that refine crude petroleum, not gasoline stations and not crude extraction. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $444,227,916.56 on 14,996 awards. The extract does not list plants, products, or barrels. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state refines more, and not a claim that 14,996 awards equal 14,996 refineries.

Other energy codes — petroleum bulk stations, petrochemicals, or fuel wholesale — sit outside $444,227,916.56 unless they also carry 324110. Mixing refining with retail fuel would invent a combined energy figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and throughput is not causation. Barrel counts are not in the packet. Place of performance as Virginia locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $444,227,916.56 in a state energy fund.

14,996 awards behind $444.2 million

Award count is a row count of tagged awards, including possible delivery orders, fuel-call contracts, and modifications. It is not a census of refineries, tanks, or gallons. Mean obligation is about $29,623 if $444,227,916.56 were divided evenly across 14,996 lines — a mechanical ratio consistent with many modest fuel lines, not a published rack price, and not a typical annual refinery contract. The packet has no gasoline-versus-jet-fuel split inside 324110.

Fourteen thousand nine hundred ninety-six lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the Virginia 324110 overlay by amount to see whether a few large rows dominate or the dollars sit in many small fuel orders. This page will not invent refiner names. Open NAICS 324110 for the national listing and Virginia industries for other codes in the state. Do not convert 14,996 into a map of Virginia tanks. The $444,227,916.56 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

What NAICS 324110 covers in this extract

The listing title is Petroleum Refineries. This extract does not split gasoline from distillates, nor does it split military from civilian fuel. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 14,996 awards, NAICS 324110, and Virginia. This page will not invent a product-share.

Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $444,227,916.56 headline is the obligation sum, not gallons already delivered and not a fiscal-year outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A fuel-contract notice dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 324110, Virginia geography, and the obligation metric.

What the Virginia refinery table omits

The extract has no barrel count, no plant list, and no product table. Facts remain $444,227,916.56, 14,996 awards, NAICS 324110, and Virginia. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 324110 joins. Defense and civilian buyers can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.

Virginia federal spending and Virginia industries place 324110 among other codes. NAICS 324110 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other industry-by-state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Virginia energy spending the packet never computed. The $444,227,916.56 figure is the tagged pair only.

Where the 324110 x Virginia overlay lives

Start with Virginia federal spending for statewide context and NAICS 324110 for the nationwide industry listing. Virginia industries lists other codes with Virginia place of performance. All spending ties is the shelf for other NAICS x state pairs on the same obligation metric. Fourteen thousand nine hundred ninety-six awards are tagged rows, not a refinery census. Plant names and barrel counts are not in this packet.

Readers who need a different industry or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $444,227,916.56 figure is the tagged NAICS 324110 × Virginia pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside Virginia after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $444,227,916.56 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.

How to read the Virginia × NAICS 324110 pair

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the industry code (NAICS 324110). The other is place of performance as Virginia. The headline $444,227,916.56 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that NAICS 324110 caused Virginia's economy to grow, or that Virginia caused NAICS 324110 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.

Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national industry listing, the state's other industrys, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.

No. Award count is a row count of tagged awards and can include delivery orders and fuel-call lines. It is not a plant or barrel census. The packet does not name refiners. See NAICS 324110 and Virginia industries for the stored shelves.
