Production of the petroleum industry and regional demand in the Delaware Estuary region. Staff report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6614840
The research on the petroleum industry in the Delaware Estuary addresses the need for a survey of economic characteristics of that industry. Various employment and output details of the industry are investigated in order to provide a useable profile of its position in the estuary economy. In addition this paper roughly determines that the region was a net exporter of petroleum products in 1972, which implies that the region experienced an induced expansionary employment, income, and tax revenue influence from this industry. The Delaware Estuary region covers portions of three states: Delaware, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania. Characteristics of petroleum activity are reported in terms of the smallest political units for which good data are available.
