What does NACE 19 cover?
NACE 19 (Manufacture of coke and refined petroleum products) classifies businesses that process crude oil into fuels and other petroleum products — a sector of strong importance for public energy procurement.
| Group | Title | Typical Goods |

Public tenders – petroleum products
Petroleum products – particularly motor fuels and bitumen – are procured in significant quantities by the public sector. Road bitumen is an important input for public road construction.
Typical contract types:
- Fuel supplies for vehicle fleets: Diesel and petrol for official vehicles, police, armed forces
- Heating oil supply: Deliveries for public estate without district-heating connection
- Bitumen for road construction: Asphalt binder for road renewal
- Kerosene supply: Aviation fuel for the air force and Federal Police helicopters
- LPG/LNG: Motor fuel and heat supply for special facilities
| CPV Code | Title | Application |
|---|---|---|
| 09100000 | Fuels | Petroleum products in general |
| 09130000 | Petroleum and distillates | Motor fuels, heating oil |
| 09134200 | Diesel fuel | Vehicle fleet, machinery |
| 09135000 | Heating oils | Building heating |
| 44113620 | Bitumen | Road surfacing, asphalt |
| 09132000 | Petroleum (kerosene/jet fuel) | Aviation fuel |
Contracting authorities
The principal contracting authorities for petroleum products are:
- Armed forces: Kerosene, diesel in large volumes for vehicles and aviation
- Road-construction administrations: Bitumen for road surfacing
- Municipal fleet operators: Framework agreements for diesel and petrol
- Public estate managers: Heating-oil supply for buildings
- Federal Police and customs: Fuel for vehicles, boats and helicopters
FAQ
How are fuel supplies for official vehicles tendered? Frequently via fuel-card framework agreements or direct fuel supply contracts. Nationwide framework agreements (e.g. through BeschA) allow cross-agency call-offs on agreed terms.
What are typical lot sizes for bitumen procurement? Bitumen is usually tendered per construction stage or construction year and is often part of an overall asphalt-works contract. For larger road-construction programmes, standalone bitumen supply contracts can be awarded.
