...The Philadelphia Energy Solutions refinery, the largest and oldest refinery on the East Coast, is shutting down and will be put up for sale, the company’s chief executive said on Wednesday, less than a week after a huge fire and explosion there.

“Today, Philadelphia Energy Solutions made the difficult decision to commence shutdown of the refining complex,” said Mark Smith, CEO of the company, which went through bankruptcy and financial restructuring last year. “While our teams include some of the most talented people in the industry, the recent fire at the refinery complex has made it impossible for us to continue operations.”

Mr. Smith said Philadelphia Energy is committed to an orderly process to safely wind down its operations, and “as part of the wind-down, the company will position the refinery complex for a sale and restart.”

The CEO’s comments confirm statements from Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney, who earlier in the day said Philadelphia Energy told his office it planned to shut the refinery down. “I’m extremely disappointed for the more than 1,000 workers who will be immediately impacted by this closure, as well as other businesses that are dependent on the refinery operations,” the mayor said.

He said the city now plans to “focus efforts on determining the future of the refinery [and] assisting PES to transition the site safely.”..



--> dauert aber alles erstmal - Monate.

--> solange solte das v.a. PBF helfen


--> von den anderen unabhängigen (VLO, MPC, PSX, HFC) hat - nach den ganzen Konsolidierungen, Aktienrückkäufen (nicht PBF, MPC) und Dividenden - keiner zum 31.3. viel Geld (mehr) auf der hohen Kante; und Aktien will Philadelphia Energy Solutions (PES) sicherlich auch nicht in ihrer Lage (mMn)


--> wer soll also kaufen in Philadelphia/USA?

--> ein großer, integrierter? (diese Raffinerie ist sehr alt als Standort, ~150Y, und möglicherweise eher suboptimal - auch vom Zustand her --> siehe eben den nicht kleinen Brand)

--> ein Ausländer in den USA unter Trump?!?
