Energy trading and refining operations across UK and Europe
Petroineos operates dual refineries (Grangemouth, Scotland; Lavéra, France) processing 360,000 barrels of crude daily, plus a trading desk for crude and refined products. The tech stack is SAP-centric (S/4HANA, VBA, Python, SQL) with active migration to modernize workflows—a S/4HANA upgrade is underway. Senior-heavy hiring (11 of 14 open roles) focused on risk, finance, and trading suggests scaling compliance and analytical capacity to manage larger transaction volumes and hedging complexity.
Petroineos is a joint venture between PetroChina and INEOS, established 2011, combining commodity trading with integrated refining and petrochemical operations.

The Lavéra refinery (France, Mediterranean coast) processes 210,000 barrels per day and supplies France, Switzerland, and Germany via pipeline. Beyond feedstock supply and product distribution, the trading desk executes third-party transactions in crude and refined products, with emerging focus on sustainable marine fuels.
