What it runs on

Which crude this refinery processes is not published. Denmark's crude-import mix is shown as national context - it is not this refinery's intake.

This refinery's crude intake by origin: UNKNOWN

Which crude oil Crossbridge Energy Fredericia refinery runs on is not published, so it is UNKNOWN. Refinery-level crude intake by origin is not public in most of Europe, and we do not allocate a national figure across refineries.

Unknown

National · DenmarkNational context — not this refinery's own figure

National context, not this refinery's intake: Denmark has 1 other crude oil refinery recorded, so the import mix describes the country as a whole. In July 2026, Denmark's crude imports came mainly from Norway (66%), the United States of America (23%) and the United Kingdom (11%).

Does the national figure describe this refinery?UnknownUnknownNo: the country has other crude refineries, and the national total is not divided between them.

"-" means the origin was not reported that month. A PARTIAL month does not add up to 100% because part of the volume was not attributed.

Outages and maintenance

Planned and unplanned shutdowns we can cite. There is no public register for EU refineries, so an empty list is not a clean record.

No public outage register exists for EU refineries (docs/DATA_SOURCES.md §L).

Strait of Hormuz: Denmark's direct crude exposure (national)

The share of the country's crude imports that came from origins loading inside the Persian Gulf. Measured per country, never per refinery.

National · DenmarkNational context — not this refinery's own figure

National figure, not specific to this refinery: Denmark imported no crude oil from origins that load inside the Persian Gulf during July 2026. Every contributing origin has a single export route outside the Gulf, so the share is 0% by geography, not by estimate. The range describes the country's crude imports; which of them reached Crossbridge Energy Fredericia refinery is not published. Calculated

Source notes for this refinery (verbatim)

OWNERSHIP CORRECTION vs the batch brief: Fredericia is NOT a Klesch refinery and was not sold by Shell to Klesch in 2016. The operator page (opened 2026-09-22) states 'American Crossbridge Energy Partners purchased the Fredericia Operations on July 1, 2021' and the company is now Crossbridge Energy A/S. The EEA IED register shows the same installation reported as 'A/S Dansk Shell' (2020), 'Crossbridge Energy A/S' (2021) and 'Crossbridge Energy Fredericia A/S' (2024), corroborating the Shell -> Crossbridge chain. The intermediate buyer was Postlane Partners (sale and purchase agreement January 2021; Tier 3 trade press, recorded as a corporate EVENT only). Capacity: the publisher prints only 'producing 10,000 tons daily', which is a product output figure rather than an explicit crude distillation capacity, so capacity_bpd is EMPTY and no conversion was made. The page states the refinery opened on 19 August 1966. Connections: the page says the refinery exports 'through our port terminal' and that Crossbridge manages 'all piped Danish North Sea oil for the Dansk Undergrunds Consortium (DUC)', a pipeline built by 1984 and 'currently owned by DUC and operated by Crossbridge'; the page does not print the pipeline's proper name, so the descriptive wording above is used. The adjacent crude terminal is registered separately by the EEA as 'Danish Oil Pipe A/S - Raolieterminalen' (55.592186, 9.741382, functional 2024). Coordinates are from the EEA Industrial Emissions Portal (IED Annex I activity 1.2, reporting year 2024), https://industry.eea.europa.eu/ - not operator-published.
