Petroplus Holdings AG

Petroplus Holdings AG

Our goal is to be the leading independent refiner and supplier of unbranded petroleum products in Europe and to be an industry leader in returning value to our shareholders.

Petroplus Holdings (formerly Petroplus International) handles plus-sized amounts of petroleum. The company, which was founded in 1993 by Marcel van Poecke and Willem Willemstein, specializes in oil refining, storage, and marketing. Petroplus owns refineries in France, Germany, Switzerland, and the UK. These refineries have a total capacity of 816,000 barrels per day. RIVR, an investment vehicle jointly owned by US private equity firms Carlyle Group and Riverstone Holdings, spent about $300 million in 2005 to acquire Petroplus and take it private. It went public again in 2006.
