Teesside Refinery
The Teesside Refinery was an oil refinery and chemical plant situated just south of Seaton Carew on the River Tees in County Durham. In 2000, it was bought by Petroplus from ICI and Phillips Petroleum Company. Refining was suspended in 2009, although the site continues to operate as a terminal and storage facility.
==History==
In the period 1965-1968, three oil refineries were developed close to Teesport on the River Tees, thanks to the Phillips Petroleum's development of the Ekofisk oil field in the North Sea.〔 The first two were jointly developed and operated by Phillips and ICI on the north shore of the River Tees, just south of Greatham Creek. After processing this facility fed cyclohexane, benzene, toluene and xylene to ICI's chemical plants at Billingham and Wilton.〔 The third refinery was developed in 1968 by Shell Oil on the south shore within Teesport.
In 1980, with the discovery of North Sea Gas, a pipeline was installed between Ekofisk and Seal Sands on the north shore.〔 Although the Shell refinery was mothballed in 1989 and later closed,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Good times for public storage )〕 as a result of the pipeline petrochemicals traffic still today represents about 50% of the cargo through Teesport, around 26 million tonnes a year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Teesport )〕
