How has Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing moved against S&P 500?
The line below covers 5.2 years. Over the most recent two of them this industry is 10% ahead of S&P 500. Earnings across its companies grew 14% on average over the last four reported quarters. It has been ahead of S&P 500 on a rolling three-month view for 4 weeks running.

Participation is spreading downward — the mid and small companies added more this month than the large ones did.
Both lines start at 200 in the same week, so the distance between them is the whole story: the industry line is an equal-weighted index of its 17 companies. The bars underneath are trailing 12-month earnings per share, one bar per reported quarter, each member rebased to 100 at the start and the industry taking the median — so a price line pulling away from flat bars is a re-rating, not earnings. A bar turns red when that figure is lower than the quarter before. Rules are fixed and applied identically everywhere on this site: ahead by 5% or more over three months, or behind by 20% or more over a year while earnings grew 20% or more. Hover any point to read both values and the gap. This is a description of what the numbers did, not advice.

4-Factor Sector Score
An additive sector-relative research score. The four displayed point contributions always equal the total: Growth & earnings (35), Capital efficiency (25), Valuation (20), and Relative strength (20). Missing or stale evidence is absorbed inside the affected factor, never applied as a hidden adjustment.
PBF Energy Inc. has the strongest current balance of earnings trajectory, business quality, valuation and price confirmation, with 74.6% evidence confidence.
Delek US Holdings, Inc. has stronger price confirmation than earnings confirmation; that is a research prompt, not permission to chase.
Missing observations are not scored as bad. Their missing weight lowers confidence and pulls the final score toward neutral. PEG is guarded: positive earnings, positive 5–60% three-year EPS growth, and a positive P/E are required.
Decision use: Fill the missing evidence before acting; the ranking is deliberately pulled toward neutral.

Revenue Scale & Growth Durability
Marathon Petroleum Corporation has the highest Revenue among the 16 Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing companies compared here, at $135,382 million. Phillips 66 is next at $134,486 million. Sunoco LP has the highest Revenue growth at 37.3%, so level and change sit with different companies. 14 of 16 companies report a comparable reading, the latest through Mar 2026.
What the numbers say: Marathon Petroleum Corporation is the scale leader at $135,382 million, 0.7% ahead of Phillips 66. Sunoco LP's growth is 37.3% from a $30,712 million base, with 19 reported observations in the 20-quarter window. Treat the growth leader as an acceleration candidate, not as equally proven scale.

Investor read: Marathon Petroleum Corporation is the scale benchmark; Sunoco LP is the acceleration watch. Promote the challenger only if growth persists and converts into margin and returns.
This conclusion weakens if: Marathon Petroleum Corporation's growth falls below Sunoco LP's for two consecutive comparable reports while operating margin also compresses.
Revenue is compared on a common reported-currency basis. Growth is year-on-year, so seasonality does not masquerade as progress.

Investor read: Use the CAPEX rank as a diligence queue. Verify commissioning, utilization, cash conversion and post-investment ROCE before treating spend as value creation.
This conclusion weakens if: CAPEX rises without higher utilization, operating cash flow or incremental returns.
CAPEX is cash spent on property, plant, equipment and other reported capital assets. CAPEX intensity divides that spend by revenue; high intensity is a reinvestment signal, not proof that the reinvestment will earn attractive returns.

This conclusion weakens if: Net debt rises faster than revenue and profit for two consecutive reported periods.
Gross debt shows contractual borrowings. Net debt subtracts reported cash; a negative value means net cash. Lower debt can create capacity, but should be read against the scale and capital intensity of the business.

What can make this comparison misleading?
This Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing comparison names 4 specific ways its own evidence can mislead, all listed below. All 16 companies here report on comparable dates, so no rank carries a stale marker. A high growth rate can still be a low-base artefact.
Keep these limits visible
A high growth rate can be a low-base artefact. The page keeps level and change separate for that reason.
A high ROCE can be temporary or flattered by a small capital base. Read it beside margin, cash conversion and reinvestment.
The 4-Factor Sector Score ranks research priority, not portfolio action. Management quality, catalysts and risks need equally fresh evidence before capital is deployed.
An “all companies” line chart preserves completeness, but rank changes should be checked against reporting dates before drawing a conclusion.

All 16 companies in the canonical Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing membership are listed below, largest market value first — nothing is silently dropped, even where a company reports too little to rank. The charts above default to a selective view; this register is the complete set, with each company's own latest reporting date beside it.
AHEAD means the company is beating the index by 5% or more over three months. LAGGING, FUNDAMENTALS UP means it is 20% or more behind over a year while its trailing twelve-month earnings grew 20% or more. Both rules are fixed and applied the same way in every sector.
This comparison is built from the reported filings of 16 Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing companies, normalized to a common $ scale and a shared quarter axis of up to 20 quarters each. Fundamentals run through Jun 2026 and market data through 2026-07-28.

Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company comparison FAQs
These 18 answers restate the Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing comparison above in question form. Every one is computed from the same 16 companies and the same reported filings as the rankings and charts, current through Jun 2026. Price and relative-strength answers run through 2026-07-28. Nothing here is estimated, and none of it is a recommendation.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company is the biggest?
Marathon Petroleum Corporation is the largest, with trailing-twelve-month revenue of $135,382 million, ahead of Phillips 66 at $134,486 million. That covers 14 of 16 companies with comparable reporting through Mar 2026.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company is growing fastest?
Sunoco LP has the fastest revenue growth at 37.3% year on year, across 14 of 16 comparable companies. Fast growth off a small base is not the same as proven scale — check whether the rate holds across several quarters on the chart above before treating it as a trend.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company has the best profit margins?
Star Group, L.P. has the highest operating margin at 20.5%, from 16 of 16 comparable companies. Clean Energy Fuels Corp. shows the biggest recent improvement, at +119.2 percentage points. A high margin matters most when it is holding or rising, not when it is peaking.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company makes the most profit?
Marathon Petroleum Corporation earns the most, at $6,383 million of trailing-twelve-month net profit, from 14 of 16 comparable companies. Phillips 66 has the fastest profit growth at 100%, though growth off a small or recovering profit base overstates how much has actually changed.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company earns the highest return on capital?
Star Group, L.P. leads on return on capital employed at 22.6%, across 16 of 16 companies. Read it beside the length of its reported history: a high return that repeats for years is evidence of a durable business, while a single high reading can be a small capital base or one good year.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing stock is the cheapest?
On guarded PEG — where a LOWER number is cheaper — PBF Energy Inc. screens cheapest at 0.09×. Only 9 of 16 companies pass the comparability guard, so this is not a sector-wide "cheapest stock" verdict. Cheap on a multiple is a reason to investigate, never a reason to buy on its own.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company has the strongest balance sheet?
Clean Energy Fuels Corp. carries the lowest comparable gross debt at $324 million, from 16 of 16 companies. Absolute rupee debt alone does not settle it, because company scale differs — net debt and debt-to-equity in the chart above carry more information, and a very low-debt balance sheet can also mean under-investment.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company is investing most in new capacity?
Marathon Petroleum Corporation reports the largest capital spending at $913 million, across 16 of 16 companies. Spending consumes cash before it earns anything, so treat the ranking as a diligence queue: check commissioning, utilisation and the return earned on the completed assets before reading spend as value creation.
Is the Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing sector beating the market?

Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing stock has the strongest price momentum?
Par Pacific Holdings, Inc. has the strongest relative strength against S&P 500. Relative strength answers last, after growth, quality and valuation: price can move well before the fundamentals confirm it, and sometimes without them confirming at all.
Which Oil & Gas Refining & Marketing company scores highest for research priority?
PBF Energy Inc. scores 67.1 out of 100 with 74.6% evidence confidence, from 20.3 points on growth and earnings, 11.8 on capital efficiency, 15.6 on valuation and 19.4 on relative strength.
