The refinery – history
Around 1960, Shell acquired land in Fredericia to build a refinery, which opened on August 19, 1966.
By 1984, Danish crude oil production necessitated a pipeline from the oil fields to the refinery. This pipeline, currently owned by DUC and operated by Crossbridge carries Danish energy from the seafloor to the world market.
American Crossbridge Energy Partners purchased the Fredericia Operations on July 1, 2021.
The refinery, now called Crossbridge Energy A/S, aims to maintain safe and stable operations while preparing for future energy needs.
In 1964, piling commenced in what is now the process area of the refinery. This involved the use of 112 reinforced concrete piles, each 8 meters in length. This can be observed in the picture above.
In 1965, the distillation tower was positioned. It was transported through Kongensgade at Nørrevoldgade in Fredericia before being installed at Egeskovvej.
The image to the right depicts this event from March 10, 1965.
