US independent petroleum refiner operating refineries on the East Coast, Gulf Coast and West Coast.
US independent petroleum refiner operating refineries on the East Coast, Gulf Coast and West Coast.
Buys crude oil and sells gasoline, diesel and jet fuel, so earnings are the spread between product prices and crude cost, which is volatile and outside its control. Its six refineries across the East Coast, Midwest, Gulf Coast and California give it access to varied crude supplies. It bought the Martinez, California refinery in 2020 and took full ownership of PBF Logistics in 2022.
Moat: narrow (scale). Regional refining positions offer some logistics advantage but limited differentiation versus larger peers.
