ExxonMobil plots major upgrades at UK refinery

ExxonMobil Corp. is considering a plan to make major upgrades at subsidiary Esso Petroleum Co.’s 270,000-b/d Fawley refinery near Southampton, UK. Intended to enable the refinery to help meet the UK’s changing fuel demand and reduce the region’s reliance on diesel imports, the multimillion-pound project would involve works designed to allow the manufacturing site to process a wider selection of crude oils.
