What it runs on

Which crude this refinery processes is not published. Belgium'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 ExxonMobil Antwerp 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 · BelgiumNational context — not this refinery's own figure

National context, not this refinery's intake: Belgium has 1 other crude oil refinery recorded, so the import mix describes the country as a whole. In July 2026, Belgium's crude imports came mainly from Norway (23%), Kazakhstan (16%) and the United States of America (13%).

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

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: Belgium'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 · BelgiumNational context — not this refinery's own figure

National figure, not specific to this refinery: Belgium 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 ExxonMobil Antwerp refinery is not published. Calculated

Source notes for this refinery (verbatim)

CONFIRMED to be a full crude oil refinery, not only a chemical plant. The ExxonMobil Belgium operations page (opened 2026-09-22) says the Antwerp refinery 'processes different grades of crude oil varying from light low-sulphur to heavy high-sulphur oil' and produces 'LPG, petrol, naphtha, kerosene, diesel, gas oil, fuel oil and raw materials for the chemical industry'; the address given is 'Polderdijkweg, 2030 Antwerp, Haven 447, Belgium'; the site is 'situated in the port area' and receives crude via 'the Rotterdam-Antwerp Pipeline, which is co-owned by ExxonMobil'. The EEA IED register lists 'ExxonMobil Petroleum & Chemical_raffinaderij' under activity 1.2 as functional for 2024. The operator page publishes NO refining capacity, so the capacity fields come from the IEA Belgium 2022 Energy Policy Review (Tier 1, as of 2022): 'the refinery owned by ExxonMobil (with a capacity of 326 kb/d)'. ExxonMobil also runs separate Antwerp-area chemical and polyethylene plants (Performance Intermediates, Zwijndrecht, Meerhout) which are not refineries and are not included here. No commissioning year is published on the opened operator page.
