Petroleum production in Cartadania is a major industry which is important to not only the national economy, but the economy of Sarpedon and trade partners alike. Cartadania has the seventh-largest oil reserves in the world and is one of the world's largest oil producer and oil exporter, with an average daily production of 1,979,390 cubic metres per day (12,450,000 bbl/d) of crude oil and equivalent, contributing roughly 11% of the global need. The largest portion of Cartadania's petroleum is exported to other nations, both raw and refined.
Cartadania produces two grades of crude oil, based on the two petroleum regions within the country. The eastern portions of Cartadania and off-shore eastern drilling fields produce Attalus Meridian grade, a light sweet grade described as light because of its low density and sweet because of its low sulfur content. It accounts for 61% of Cartadania's crude production. The other grade, produced in the western portions and drilled within the Taínean Sea and Bay of Siena is the toponymously named Taínean Select, a medium sour crude type.
