Stanlow is one of the largest refineries in Europe covering an area the equivalent of 300 football pitches. The refinery processes up to 9 million tonnes of crude every year - that’s more than 20,000 litres per minute. Distribution of products from Stanlow is mainly via road and pipeline. The remainder of our products leave via the Manchester Ship canal. The energy recovery plant processes both liquid and solid waste and is capable of generating 350 tonnes of steam every day for refinery use.
