LE’s primary operating asset is the 15,000 barrel per day Nixon refinery. As a “topping unit,” the Nixon refinery is primarily comprised of a crude oil distillation tower/unit – the first stage of the crude oil refining process. The refinery separates crude oil and condensate into a single finished product – jet fuel – and several intermediate products, including naphtha, heavy oil mud blendstock, and atmospheric gas oil.
