The Ingolstadt Refinery

The Ingolstadt refinery is located on a 128-hectare site in Ingolstadt, Germany approximately 80 kilometers north of Munich. It was originally commissioned in 1963 by ExxonMobil CE and bought by Petroplus in April of 2007. The refinery is an integrated atmospheric-vacuum distillation, fluid catalytic cracking refinery with a name plate capacity of 110,000 barrels per day.

From 2000 to 2003, the refinery was modified by installing a hydrogen plant, a catalytic naphtha splitter and other improvements to, among other things, reduce fuel sulfur content to meet German product standards for gasoline and ULSD, which were implemented in advance of the 2009 deadline for the European Auto Oil II standards.

The refinery's crude oil supply arrives via the TAL pipeline system, a 753 kilometer pipeline connection from the marine shipping terminal in Trieste, Italy.

The Ingolstadt refinery's light and middle distillates such as gasoline, diesel, blended diesel and jet fuel are sold predominantly in Germany and Austria. We typically sell the majority of our output to oil majors, resellers, industry and retail petrol stations.

Products are shipped from the Ingolstadt refinery's own on-site truck-loading rack and railcar-loading facilities. This enables a stable distribution into the local markets.
