Spanish term or phrase: derivados del petróleo
It's a Mexican Economic Report, already in English, I'm editing. The person wrote "utilizing oil derive public resources". Thks
Oli Aguilar
using oil-related revenues / oil-related public resources / oil-related economic resources
Explanation:
La oración entera está muy mal en inglés, pero si lo que quieren decir es:

"utilizar ingresos derivados del petróleo"
"utilizar recursos públicos derivados del petróleo"
"utilizar recursos económicos derivados del petróleo"

Entonces algo así podría servirte.

No creo que sea "productos derivados del petróleo" y entonces tampoco puede ser "oil-byproducts"
