Parallelism Two

Hi,

Doesn't D break parallelism here? "to the refineries of North American" AND "to the world"

The presence of "to" in the second part makes it unparallelled? first part talks about refineries second part talks about countries.

If there's no "to" then it makes sense. Refineries of North America and the world. OR "to that of the world."

Actually this is a ellipsis question i.e in the latter part of the sentence it means to [the refineries] of the world.......part in green is the hidden part of the sentence which is not necessary to be repeated again in GMAT if the same has been mentioned in the first part of the sentence.
