  • Changed the name of the refinery in El Salvador from "Acajutla Refinery" to "Refineria Petrolera de Acajutla SA de CV", its actual name. -Cirilobeto 05:18, 16 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] List in Oil and Gas Journal

The Oil and Gas Journal, a widely read and respected weekly magazine in the petroleum industry, publishes a list of all the refineries in the world ... usually in one of their December issues. That annual list is about a 45-page, refinery-by-refinery in country-by-country tabulation including (for each refinery): location, crude oil daily processing capacity, and the size of each process unit in the refinery. The list is updated each year with additions, deletions, name changes, capacity changes, etc. I think this article should include information about the Oil and Gas Journal's list, so I have added that information. - mbeychok 20:27, 25 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Oil Refinery Ownership

I read a list of oil refineries a while ago; it seemed that some refineries were part of chemical company complexes, eg Dupont in Delaware. What percentage of major chemical complexes have "their own refinery"?
