Chevron Adds HF Sinclair, Reinkert as Base Oil Partners


   
   HOUSTON, TX (DTN) -- Chevron Products Company will expand its North American 
base oils distribution network effective May 1, 2027, through complementary 
agreements with HF Sinclair Lubricants & Specialties and Renkert Oil, , 
according to separate company statements released Monday (8/3).

   Under the agreement, HF Sinclair Lubricants will serve as Chevron's 
exclusive distributor of Group II base oils in Canada and existing U.S. 
customer territories, with non-exclusive rights in select additional U.S. 
regions.

   Renkert Oil will continue distributing Paralux and Paramount process oils 
across the United States, Canada and Europe, alongside NEXBASE Group III base 
oils and Chevron Group II base oils in U.S. markets outside HF Sinclair's 
exclusive territory.

   The agreements also support HF Sinclair's previously announced plans to 
retire its base oil refining assets in Mississauga, Ontario, with the full 
transition to the new supply model expected by the second half of 2027.
