Marathon Oil - Catlettsburg Refinery

USA / Kentucky / Catlettsburg /

Marathon’s Catlettsburg refinery is located in northeastern Kentucky on the western bank of the Big Sandy River. It was purchased in 1924 by Swiss Oil Corporation (then parent company of Ashland Inc.). The refinery sits on a 650-acre site, has a capacity of 226,000 barrels per calendar day and is staffed by more than 800 employees.

Producing nearly two percent of the gasoline made in the United States, the refinery processes both sweet and sour crude oils that are supplied primarily by pipeline. The Catlettsburg refinery is a major producer of asphalt, diesel, jet fuel, petrochemicals, propane and lube oils.
