They have first-hand knowledge and expertise in the markets, maintain long-term relationships with key market participants—producers, refiners, logistics companies and storage experts—and are actively involved in developing projects related to existing and new crude oil flows.

AGOR acquisition of three refineries has created greater opportunities for us to further diversify our crude oil portfolio. Our Antwerp refinery, for example, is able to use a very flexible range of feeds, and provides AGOR with the option to source and process crudes otherwise previously commercially impracticable.
