In the United States which is a world's largest oil consuming country various oil companies have repeated rise and fall. In this competitive market Valero Energy Corporation has been expanding rapidly especially after the 1990s. The company changed the oil refining industry’s conventional way which is based on crude oil processing into atmospheric distillation bottom (residual fuels) processing. As a result the company collected the know-how of process technologies through the challenges to treat residuals with more difficulties than crude oil. The company learned refining technology more advanced than a competitor and built the No.1 status in oil refining business in the United States with outstanding oil process technology capabilities. It should be evaluated that the performance of the company had a big influence on oil refinery’s operations in respect of dealing with heavier crude oil and expansion of the gap of lighter and heavier petroleum products. I clarify the role which the policy innovation played in business development of Valero Energy Corporation.
