Canada's Irving Oil buys Whitegate refinery in Ireland
Report summary
On August 3rd Irving Oil announced it had signed an agreement to buy Whitegate refinery in Ireland from Philliips 66. This came as a surprise, as although the refinery was for sale, it was generally thought it would prove difficult to find a buyer. So what is the rationale for the Canadian oil company buying a small Irish refinery? There are a number of reasons but Wood Mackenzie think there are some synergies between the Irving St. John refinery on Canada's east coast and the small Whitegate refinery in Cork.
