Phillips 66 will integrate Lindsey Oil Refinery assets into Humber Refinery, enhancing UK fuel supply and energy security while supporting hundreds of jobs, officials said.

  • The UK energy minister said Phillips 66 was the 'most credible bidder', securing an industrial future for the Lindsey site and allowing the company to expand operations while boosting domestic energy security.
