Port Arthur Refinery Joined Valero in 2005 Throughput capacity: 310,000 barrels per day Commissioned in 1901, the Valero Port Arthur Refinery was purchased from Premcor, Inc. in 2005 and stands as the oldest site in the Valero system. It sits strategically on 4,000 acres on the Port Arthur Ship Channel, approximately 90 miles east of Houston. The site has the ability to process 100 percent sour crude oil, 80 percent of which can be heavy sour crude. Major investments have strengthened its competitive edge, with coker, crude and vacuum unit expansions and a state-of-the-art hydrocracker. The refinery’s location accommodates its extensive logistics system, which includes access to Gulf Coast water-borne crude oil via the refinery docks or through the Nederland, Texas, terminals of Sun or Oil Tanking. 58
St. Charles Refinery Joined Valero in 2003 Throughput capacity: 250,000 barrels per day Located on approximately 1,000 acres, about 15 miles upstream from New Orleans, the Valero St. Charles Refinery is one of the newest refineries in the United States. Its major process units were built in the early 1980s or later. Since acquiring the refinery from Orion Refining Corporation in 2003, Valero has invested more than $1 billion, making the plant also one of the company’s more complex refineries. The St. Charles facility adds value to the company’s operations by providing intermediate feedstocks to other Valero refineries located along the Gulf Coast. The plant is VPP Star Site certified for safety. 59
