ExxonMobil to expand distillates output at Altona refinery
ExxonMobil Corp. plans to add 10 Mbpd of diesel and jet fuel production capacity at its Altona refinery in Melbourne, Australia, enlarging the plant to 90 Mbpd.
The additional supplies will be absorbed by the Australian market.
The expansion is slated for completion in 2017. In addition to increased fuels production, it will improve the energy efficiency of the facility by recovering waste heat.
The company said the expansion would help enhance its competitive position.
ExxonMobil's primary competitor in the Australian market is Viva Energy Australia, which operates the 120-Mbpd Geelong refinery near Melbourne.
