    Corytown oil refinery bankrupt

    Corytown refinery in Essex which refines 170.000 barrels of oil a day to supply London and the South East with our petrol and diesel.

    No tankers have left the depot to deliver today and already fuel is going short in the area .

    Diesel is expected to go through the £1.50p a litre very shortly

    obviously the price of refined gas and diesel is not high enough. Thanks to the money printing of the socialist western govts, inflation is squeezing everyones margins.

    And the service industry is shrinking too. Famous Retail companies are collapsing on a weekly basis. many large Insurance companies and call-centres have closed down/relocated abroad.

    I might retrain as a sandal/shoe repairer and head out to Karachi to see if there any any job opportunities. There sure as hell aren't any in blighty right now!

    The refinery was owned by a Swiss company that has gone bankrupt, the refinery's biggest customer is BP, it will operate under the liquidators until it has a new owner.
    Just scaremongering by the union, hoping exacerbate the striking tanker drivers dispute that has started in the North of England.

    So Socal, since you're such the expert, could you tell us current Refining Net Margins, and whether or not this refinery is actually making a profit or loss?

    Especially given that half a dozen parties have already approached the administrators with a view to buying Coryton?

    Or are you just spouting shit again?

    I wouldn't think the Swiss company going bankrupt was anything to do with the tanker drivers trade union .

    The tanker drivers are a complete separate entity from the refinery , and nearly all of them ( no matter whether it says Sainsbury's or BP on the door are employed by a Dutch company called Hoyer

    Coryton supplies 20% of the SE petrol market, so it's going to take a while for others to pick up the slack.

    The nearest one;s will be on the south coast from here Harry ,, which means all that lot coming up through the Dartford tunnel and all that goes with it, thousands more miles of tanker journeys, what with this and the impending gulf crisis I think were gonna hit the £1.50 mark very soon

    No doubt Fawley has spare capacity, most sensible refiners only make what they can sell.

    Petroplus probably hedged years ahead on crude prices, not expecting it to tank like it did, and are now having to pay way over the odds for the futures they bought, leaving them making an unsustainable loss. Now they're fucked and the banks won't bail them out.

    In other words: Greedy capitalists get it wrong - again.

    Only a moron like Socal would blame socialists for that fuck up.

    The socialist handouts promised by western nanny states are paid for at least partially by printing money which stokes inflation and high oil prices.

    So like usual, the socialists mis diagnose the peoblem
