Kalundborg 

The Kalundborg refinery is a small, yet highly efficient refinery. It has a high degree of flexibility, enabling it to produce a variety of products such as gasoline, jet fuel, diesel, propane and fuel oils for markets in Denmark and Sweden.
The refinery is connected through two pipelines (gasoline/gasoil) to our terminal at Hedehusene, near Copenhagen. Kalundborg's refined products are also supplied to markets in north-western Europe, mainly Germany and France. Fuel oil is exported to Italy and the USA.

The following table shows the approximate quantities of refined products (in thousand tonnes) produced by Kalundborg in the periods indicated

 1) Total throughput has increased from 2007, The increase is explained by optimisation arising after startup of the Fuel Reduction plant, strong operational focus on throughput optimisation and no large turnaround in 2008
2) Fuel Oil volume has increased due to large import of flux material since the start of the Fuel Reduction Project

There was a turnaround in 2007.

Kalundborg is a plant with high energy efficiency and high utilisation. The refinery has improved its performance significantly in recent years through several small investment projects aimed at increasing flexibility and improving yield/product quality. It produces high-quality products, including low-sulphur petrol, in accordance with EU specifications.

The Fuel Reduction Project, which reduces the production of heavy fuel oil and increases the production of sulphur-free auto diesel, was started up in 2008.
