The Antwerp refining and petrochemicals platform is our largest integrated complex in Europe. To meet growing global demand and address new market trends, we have upgraded and adapted the site to focus production on higher added-value products that meet the most stringent environmental standards. Read on for an overview of the characteristics of the Antwerp platform and the main projects carried out at the site.

The complex is ideally situated in Antwerp’s port area in the thriving Antwerp-Rotterdam-Amsterdam (ARA) hub serving Europe’s oil markets. The site comprises Europe’s third-largest refinery with a capacity of 338,000 barrels of oil per day, a petrochemical complex and a polymer plant that produces high-density polyethylene. The Antwerp complex manages two pipelines, one for ethylene and the other for propylene, allowing the Company to transport 6 million tons of products every year to its Feluy polymer plant, which is also located in Belgium.
