Phillips 66 buys UK Lindsey oil refinery assets — but says it won’t reopen the plant

London, Jan 7, 2026, 08:31 (GMT) Phillips 66 Limited said it had agreed to acquire assets and associated infrastructure from Britain’s Lindsey Oil Refinery and integrate key facilities into its Humber Refinery in North Lincolnshire.
