Refining Throughput Barrels Per Day
Indicates the volume of crude oil processed daily, highlighting the company's capacity utilization and efficiency in meeting market demand.Sweet crude remains the backbone of Valero’s feedstock mix—its sustained dominance since 2023 has underpinned system throughput stability and the March jet‑yield gains management touted. Heavy sour surged in 2023–24 but dropped in early‑2026, which, together with a small uptick in medium/light sour, looks like operational rebalancing after the Port Arthur hydrotreater outage and Benicia idling. That feedstock shuffle matters: it will drive yield changes, exacerbate capture‑rate volatility in a backwardated market and pressure near‑term diesel/gasoline margins despite management’s guidance for throughput normalization.
