Horst Refinery | Source: BP (Jul 18, 2023)

The Horst refinery is a crude processing and heavy conversion hub of the integrated Ruhr Oel GmbH–BP Gelsenkirchen complex. With a crude distillation capacity of 5.5 million tonnes per year, it is the smaller of the two Gelsenkirchen sites, covering 160 hectares with approximately 600 employees. While Scholven specialises in petrochemicals and olefin production, Horst focuses on crude distillation and downstream conversion into fuel products via its FCC and Coker — the two defining units of the site.

We have identified nine production units.
