Additionally, it finds export markets for surplus refinery products that are not needed by the Group.

From a trading and supply standpoint, the biggest risk is the availability of regular condensed feedstock. In the case of a potential disruption, the segment maintains considerable diversification in condensate supply sources. Price volatility and counterparty creditworthiness are two other major risks for this segment, and mitigation strategies include hedging for exposure to reduce the open position to an acceptable level, as well as undertaking regular counterparty evaluations.
To ensure that sufficient, effective, and efficient refining and processing capacities are available at all times, these facilities continue to invest in expansion while also taking appropriate precautions – such as preventive maintenance programs, updating resource skill sets through continuous and relevant trainings, and EHS reviews – to reduce the risks of plant breakdowns and/or operational disruptions. Regular EHS audits are critical to preventing dangers at processing units and inventory storage facilities.
