BEIJING - China Petroleum and Chemical Corp (Sinopec), the nation's largest oil refiner, said on Friday that it processed 211 million tons of crude oil in 2010, up 13.2 percent year-on-year.

The company produced 10.5 percent more diesel and 19.54 percent more kerosene to cope with the surging demand.

Sinopec produced 330 million barrels of crude oil last year, slightly higher than in 2009. The figure was unaudited.

Its natural gas output grew 47.6 percent year-on-year to 12.5 billion cubic meters.
