China Refined Oil Output Increased Greatly in 2017

China's refined oil output remained in an uptrend from 2013 to 2017, except in 2016. In 2016, China's diesel output went down, due to the weak market demand.

The diesel output was 167,519kt, up 2.3% from the same period of 2016. The kerosene output was 38,837kt, up 6.6% year-on-year.
