ASTM role in production and trade of product and services
International trade of crude oils and products requires a marketplace based on fair economic competition without unreasonable restraints and operating in an open and transparent environment. ASTM manages 140 Committees, with the participation of more than 30000 professionals and experts that represent 140 countries. ASTM is a not-for-profit International Organization is the leader in the development, technological update and sustainability of standardized Test Methods, Procedures, Guides and Quality Specifications of crude oils, lubricants and fuel products based on open participation and voluntary consensus. Through this leadership, ASTM standards for petroleum products strive to improve the precision, eliminate bias and establish correlations between methods that purport to ensure the same composition or quality parameters.
