* European Refining Margin Indicator (ERMI) is an indicator intended to represent the margin after variable costs for a hypothetical complex refinery located around Rotterdam in Northern Europe that processes a mix of crude oil and other inputs commonly supplied to this region to produce and market the main refined products at prevailing prices in this region. - The indicator margin may not be representative of the actual margins achieved by Total in any period because of Total’s particular refinery configurations, product mix effects or other company-specific operating conditions.
TRCV was the indicator margin reported in previous quarters in the interim updates. For information, TRCV is 19.3 $/t for first quarter 2010.
** 1 $/t = 0.136 $/b
*** consolidated subsidiaries, excluding fixed margin and buy-back contracts
