Last updated: August 2026 dataNAICS 211120 is the most granular classification for crude petroleum extraction, representing establishments whose primary output is unrefined liquid petroleum recovered from geological formations, including unconventional sources such as oil sands and tight oil plays. This six-digit code is the operative level for Census Bureau economic surveys, BLS employment data, and EPA facility reporting, making it a critical anchor when trade professionals link domestic production statistics to import-competition analysis under HTS 2709. The code does not cover downstream refining, which is separately classified under NAICS 324110.

NAICS 211120 covers the extraction of crude petroleum in its unrefined state. Once crude is processed at a refinery to produce gasoline, diesel, or other petroleum products, those activities fall under NAICS 324110 (Petroleum Refineries). The boundary is the point of refining, not the physical location of the facility.
Yes. Both onshore and offshore crude petroleum extraction — including deepwater Gulf of Mexico operations — are classified under NAICS 211120, provided the establishment's primary activity is crude oil recovery rather than contract drilling services (which fall under NAICS 213111).
