Garyville, LouisianaThe Louisiana Refining Division is located along the Mississippi River in Southeastern Louisiana near the town of Garyville. The refinery has the capacity to convert 256,000 barrels of crude oil per day into products such as gasoline, No. 1 and No. 2 fuel oils. Sulfur, asphalt, propane/propylene, isobutane, kerosene and coke are manufactured as secondary products. The facility was constructed in 1976 and is the last major grassroots refinery built in the United States. The refinery is currently the 16th largest refinery in the U.S., based on crude throughput. The Garyville Major Expansion project is an estimated $3.2 billion investment that will increase the size of the Garyville refinery by 180,000 barrels per day (bpd). With the expansion, the refinery's capacity will grow from 256,000 bpd to 425,000 bpd, making it among the largest refineries in the country. Conceptual studies for the project were initiated in 2004, and the project moved into the Front End Engineering and Design phase in 2006. Construction began in March 2007, with startup planned for the fourth quarter of 2009. Safety and Environmental Recognition
