A fire broke out at Greece 's Agioi Theodoroi oil refinery on September 17, disrupting operations at one of its two key crude processing units. The facility, operated by Motor Oil Hellas , is Greece 's second-largest refinery, processing around 175,000 barrels per day. Despite the damage, the refinery is operating at over 50% capacity due to its complex configuration, according to company sources.
The disruption at this key facility has raised concerns about potential supply impacts in the region, although the refinery's reduced, yet ongoing, operations may help mitigate a full shutdown scenario. The fire also adds pressure on European refining capacity at a time when global markets are already sensitive to supply shocks, making the recovery and safety measures at Agioi Theodoroi crucial to the energy sector's short-term outlook.
