European refining at the Rubicon again – which assets will make it over? (data version)
Report summary
Wood Mackenzie’s updated closure threat analysis of European refineries is now available. This exercise analyses 83 refineries in Europe, and using a range of criteria, it quantifies the risk of closure for each asset. Some of the questions this insight answers are: Which refineries are most-at-risk of closure, and what is the total capacity of these assets? Would this be enough to sustain refinery utilisation in Europe in the longer term? What reasons can keep a refinery safe, despite a high-risk score? This version also includes access to an Excel file which can be changed and details all the assumptions for each asset.
