Product Characteristics Surveys and Databases
Our Canadian product database allows us to provide customers with expert advice and technical information on the characteristics and trends of gasoline and diesel marketed across Canada and around the world.
- biannual sample analysis surveys
- information on automotive gasolines and diesels
- access to an extensive historical database of trends in Canadian fuels
- proprietary database solely maintained by ARC.
This knowledge-based program improves customers’ understanding of the refined petroleum products industry in Canada.
The information can be used by automotive manufacturers for engine performance assessment, or by fuel producers to assess current market trends. Information is also useful to consumer groups, and provincial and federal regulatory agencies.
