Phillips 66 said on Oct. 16 it plans to stop operations at its Los Angeles-area refinery in the fourth quarter of 2025 and will work with the state of California to supply fuel markets and meet consumer demand.
The stoppage will impact employees and contractors who operate the refinery, which currently has 600 employees and 300 contractors.
"With the long-term sustainability of our Los Angeles Refinery uncertain and affected by market dynamics," the company is working with land development firms to evaluate the future use of its properties near the Port of Los Angeles, said CEO Mark Lashier.
