Text Commissioned Here in 1929 by Standard Oil, the Aruba Refinery was purchased by <strong>Valero</strong> in 2004 from El Paso Energy. The facility<br />
has undergone significant upgrades since it was re-commissioned in the early 1990s. The refinery processes lower-cost, heavy sour<br />
crude oil and produces a high yield of finished distillate products and valuable intermediate feedstocks that can be marketed in<br />
the U.S. Gulf Coast, Florida, the New York Harbor, the Caribbean, South America and Europe. The refinery has excellent logistics,<br />
including two deepwater marine docks with capacity for ultra-large crude carriers, six docks for refined products and a truck rack<br />
for local sales.<br />
