Purpose: The system serves as the means by which refiners subject to the Petroleum Pricing Regulations compute and adjust May 15, 1973 selling prices for covered products (gasoline and general refinery products). This allows DOE to monitor certain price movements within the industry. Input: The Information is from refiners uses form EIA-14. Content: The content includes the costs and quantities of imported and domestic crude petroleum and the cost involved in the refining of those products listed above. Data are collected monthly on a national basis. Output: Hardcopy summaries of cost elements for various covered products are produced monthly. Agency Contact: Economic Regulatory Administration.

Energy Policy and Conservation Act of 1975 (P.L. 94-163). Energy Conservation and Production Act (P.L. 94-385). Availability: Crude buy/sell data based on ERA-56 is publicly available semiannually. Data based on the ERA-183 is available during periods of severe crude shortage. Currently, ERA-57 and ERA-59 data are not available. Geographic Relevance: National Purpose: There are two segments of this program. (1) This is a system to allocate crude oil to ensure that small and independent refiners are able to purchase sufficient crude oil to operate at economically feasible production levels. The information is used to compile a buy/sell list which specifies the amount some refiners are required to offer for sale and the amount which other refiners are eligible to buy. (2) The standby allocation segment will only be used in times of severe crude oil shortages. Input: All U.S. refiners report to this system. It uses Forms ERA-56, ERA-57 and ERA-183 for crude oil buy/sell data and ERA-59 for standby mandatory crude allocation. Content: The content includes refinery capacity, crude oil runs to stills, processing agreements, and sales and purchases under the mandatory allocation program. Output: A quarterly buy/sell list is produced. Agency Contact: Economic Regulatory Administration. (202) 2549707. Purpose: The objective of the DOE Transfer Pricing Program is to monitor and regulate the prices at which oil companies transfer equity crude oil from their foreign to domestic affiliates. Such regulation is needed because of the cost pass-through provisions of the Emergency Petroleum Allocation Act of 1973. The DOE attempts to control these transfer prices by comparing them with prices from transactions involving the same or similar crude types that were conducted on an arm's-length basis. When a company's transfer prices for a given crude exceed the arm's-length standard established by the DOE, a disallowance of cost is proposed. Input: The data are derived from reports submitted monthly by each refiner which imports 500,000 barrels of crude oil during the month and/or each refiner which imports crude oil from an affiliated entity during the month. Content: The system consists of information concerning imported crude petroleum obtained by purchase and through exchanges, cost data for imported equity and buy-back oil, crude petroleum sales and purchases, foreign crude trading activity by country of origin, and crude characteristics data. Form ERA-S1 is used. Output: Output reports are generated monthly in hardcopy. Reports provide data on the high, low, and average transaction prices. Companies whose transaction prices exceed the computed average transaction price are subject to the issuance of a notice of disallowance. Purpose: This system incorporates all assignments handled by DOE compliance including all nationally directed programs, regionally directed programs, the Refinery Audit Review Program, and all special programs. This system provides the most current status of assignments possible and benefits the compliance effort by providing periodic reports to management on the status of assignments in process, a history of closed assignments, and various statistical information. Input: Input is provided internally by regional and national office personnel. Content: The system contains information pertaining to assignment set-ups, status changes, time, and settlement data. Output: Weekly, monthly, and ad hoc reports are produced on computer printouts. The format is variable, with query capability. Agency Contact: Economic Regulatory Administration. (202) 2546414.
