Be the first person to write a business review for Tidal Energy Marketing, Inc.

TonenGeneral Sekiyu K.K. has conducted business over many years as a leader in the petroleum and petrochemical industries in Japan. In our current operating environment, overall demand for oil in Japan is expected to decline due to changes in the energy demand structure associated with rising crude oil prices and evolution in the country's industrial composition. On the other hand, tightening of the supply/demand balance for petroleum products worldwide has led to increased export opportunities. In the petrochemical business, while global demand especially for basic petrochemical products continues to grow strongly and has supported our financial results in the last few years, we need to progress our strategy in a timely manner to cope with changes in the business environment. Under these conditions, the TonenGeneral Group is taking an integrated approach to all of its businesses, including refining and supply of petroleum products, marketing and chemicals. Specifically, we are pursuing the optimal combination of raw materials, product supply, and marketing channels to maximize added value. We also take full advantage of the ExxonMobil Group network to continue and further develop our business activities as a company with world-class cost competitiveness and technology, and the best refining, marketing and chemical operations in Japan. We intend to maintain growth and development in the future by achieving the highest global standards of operating efficiency and profitability.

Operating four oil refineries, with a total of 28.1 million tons annual crude oil processing capacity, Tüpraş is Turkey’s largest industrial enterprise. In addition, a 50,000 ton capacity petrochemical production facility, a majority stake ( 79,98 %) in shipping company DİTAŞ and 40% share ownership of petrol retailer Opet, creates synergies and adds value to the operations. The roots of Tüpraş, an integrated petroleum company with a large market share, corporate reliability, production complexes and affiliates, dates back to İPRAŞ (İstanbul Petrol Rafinerisi A.Ş.) founded by the U.S. Caltex Company. In 1983, İPRAŞ and three other publicly owned refineries were brought under the Tüpraş umbrella by arrangements made for a more effective operation of State Economic Enterprises. The first step for operational diversification of Tüpraş was the purchase in 2001 of the Petkim Yarımca facilities, putting in place the ready-to-operate infrastructure for enlargement projects that were needed by the refining operations.
