INEOS Refining is Europe's leading independent crude oil refiner. With two particularly advantaged refineries we process more than 410,000 barrels of crude oil per day, to produce in the region of 20 million Tonnes of fuels per annum. Our refineries are strategically located at Grangemouth Scotland and Lavera France and are both fully integrated with co-sited petrochemical assets of the Company. Close proximity to feedstocks and our customers are key elements of our strength.
Grangemouth is directly connected to the Forties oil field system in the North Sea and also imports other crudes from around the world via our deep sea terminal on the west coast of Scotland. Lavera is located on the Mediterranean coast, which is one of the world's largest crude oil trading basins. Crude diet flexibility and upgrading capabilities further augment our leading position; with both refineries featuring cat-cracking and hydro-cracking units skewing outputs in favour of premium products such as gasoline, diesel and jet fuel.
INEOS Refining is a young and dynamic company. We have a simple approach to business, where responding rapidly to the changing needs of our customers is underpinned by continuous improvement from empowered employees. We not only seek to be the supplier of choice but also the employer of choice; decentralised and highly entrepreneurial in nature. In applying this approach, we have very exciting prospects to achieve year-on-year safe, compliant and profitable growth, that will enable us to fulfill our mission to become a global leader.
