Italian term or phrase: distillati medi
Can anyone help with a translation for "distillati medi" in the following paragraph?

Per il sistema della raffineria è previsto un aumento della capacità di distillazione di 8,8 mb/g entro il 2013. Questo incremento dovrebbe coprire gli aumenti della domanda di approvvigionamento per l’intero periodo e contribuirà ad attenuare l’attuale rigidità della raffineria, che limita la flessibilità del settore ad andare incontro alla forte crescita strutturale della domanda di DISTILLATI MEDI.
