通讯员 据3月2日Hydrocarbon Engineering报道，普凯（Prax）集团是一家从事石油产品和生物燃料业务的独立炼油、贸易、储存、分销和零售集团。该集团宣布，已与托克达成独家原油和原料供应协议。
根据交易条款，Prax将从托克购买原油和炼油原料，以满足其对Prax Lindsey炼油厂的所有需求。该炼油厂位于英国东北部亨伯河口的Immingham附近。
根据新协议，托克将利用其在国际石油市场的全球影响力，为炼油厂采购最佳范围的原油和原料，与该交易有关的其他细节仍处于保密状态。
Prax集团首席执行官Sanjeev Kumar表示:“这一安排是集团炼油厂长期发展计划中的重要一步，将为进一步加强我们与托克的长期关系铺平道路，有助于使运营和规划更具灵活性，帮助我们继续为客户提供优质的服务。”
托克执行董事兼石油交易联席主管Jose Maria Larocca表示:“托克很高兴在收购普拉克斯集团新的炼油厂后继续合作。我们致力于通过提供全球大宗商品市场上最好的机会来支持我们的客户。”
普凯集团于2021年3月1日从道达尔手中接管了林赛炼油厂。凭借540万吨的年生产能力，此次收购巩固了集团从上游到下游全面整合石油价值链的长期战略，并为其在英国的下游业务确保了石油产品贸易和销售的本地供应。

The Prax Group agrees exclusive crude oil supply arrangement with Trafigura
The Prax Group, an independent oil refining, trading, storage, distribution and retail conglomerate dealing in petroleum products and bio-fuels, has announced that it has completed an exclusive crude oil and feedstocks supply arrangement with Trafigura.
Under the terms of the transaction, Prax will purchase crude oil and refinery feedstocks from Trafigura for all of its requirements for the Prax Lindsey oil refinery, located near Immingham in the Humber estuary, in the North-East region of the UK.
Under the new agreement, Trafigura will use its global reach in international oil markets to source the optimal range of crude oils and feedstocks for the refinery. Other details relating to the transaction remain confidential.
Sanjeev Kumar, CEO of the Prax Group, said: “This arrangement is an important step in the group’s plans for the long-term growth of the refinery and it will pave the way to further strengthen our long-term relationship with Trafigura. It will provide operational and planning flexibility, helping us to continue to deliver an excellent level of service to our customers.”
Jose Maria Larocca, Executive Director and Co-Head of Oil Trading for Trafigura, said: “Trafigura is delighted to be working with the Prax Group following their new refinery acquisition. We’re committed to supporting our customers by providing access to the best opportunities available in the global commodity markets.”
The Prax Group took over ownership of the Lindsey oil refinery from Total on 1 March 2021. With an annual production capacity of 5.4 million t, the acquisition underpins the group’s long-term strategy to be fully integrated across the oil value chain from upstream to downstream and secures local supply for the trade and sale of oil products for its downstream presence in the UK.
