 ConocoPhillips divides its North American refining and marketing activities into four regions. Each region contains assets that are integrated by location, transportation, markets and commercial activities. The East Coast region includes Bayway refinery in Linden, N.J., and Trainer refinery in Trainer, Pa.
Bayway Refinery
The Bayway refinery, located on the New York Harbor in Linden, N.J., has a crude oil processing capacity of 238 MBD and processes mainly light, low-sulfur crude oil. Crude oil is supplied to the refinery by tanker, primarily from the North Sea, Canada and West Africa. The facility distributes its refined products to East Coast customers through pipelines, barges, railcars and trucks.
The refinery produces a high percentage of transportation fuels, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. Other products include petrochemical feedstocks, home heating oil and residual fuel oil. The mix of products produced changes to meet seasonal demand. Gasoline is in higher demand during the summer, while in winter the refinery optimizes operations to increase heating oil production. The complex also includes a 775-million-pound-per-year polypropylene plant.
Trainer Refinery
The Trainer refinery is located on the Delaware River in Trainer, Pa., about 10 miles southwest of the Philadelphia airport. The refinery has a crude oil processing capacity of 185 MBD and processes mainly light, low-sulfur crude oil. The Bayway and Trainer refineries are operated in coordination with each other by sharing crude oil cargos and moving feedstocks between the facilities. Trainer receives crude oil from West Africa, Canada and the North Sea.
The refinery produces a high percentage of transportation fuels, such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. Other products include home heating oil, residual fuel oil and liquefied petroleum gas. Refined products primarily are distributed to customers in Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey via pipeline, barge, railcar and truck, and home heating oil is distributed by tanker.
